ABB has once again been listed in The World's Most Ethical Companies list by Ethisphere Institute, an independent research center promoting best practices in corporate ethics and governance. The World’s Most Ethical Companies designation recognizes those organizations that have had a material impact on the way business is conducted by fostering a culture of ethics and transparency at every level of the company.This is the third consecutive year that ABB has graced the list, something that executives say shows great progress.
“We have made tremendous progress in integrity and the award shows our commitment to a robust and engaging integrity program, but being awarded the honor for the third year in a row is not a given, nor can we take it for granted,” said Chief Executive Officer, Ulrich Spiesshofer. “It is the result of a relentless dedication to integrity by all employees around the world. This is the achievement of our employees, and it shows that we are taking our company and integrity to the next level.”
“I’d like to thank all employees for their commitment to integrity, because they are the ones who have made it possible to receive the distinction this year, and any years previously,” said Diane de Saint Victor, ABB General Counsel and member of the Executive Committee. “It feels good to be a part of this year’s list of honorees, and it feels good to be part of a company that is known in the marketplace as an ethical one.”
