Top of the ethical list
April 1st 2011 SCA has been named as one of
the world's most ethical
companies for a fourth
consecutive year.
Only two other organisations
in the forestry, paper and
packaging sector were listed
this year: Stora Enso which
produces paper, packaging and
wood products; and
International Paper which
specialises in office paper and
consumer packaging.
The World's Most Ethical
Companies list, compiled each
year by the Ethisphere Institute
in New York, recognises those
organisations that go beyond
making statements about doing
business ethically and that
actually translate their words
into action.
Hundreds of companies were
assessed before the final list of
110 companies was compiled.
Those that qualify need to
demonstrate leading ethics and
compliance programmes,
particularly compared to those
of their industry peers.There is
no set number of companies
that make the list each year.
SCA regularly receives
recognition for its sustainable
policies. Earlier this month the
company was one of only four
companies worldwide to be
nominated for the Globe
Sustainability Reporting Award
2011. And in November 2010,
SCA in Germany received a
Global Partner Award from the
Forest Stewardship Council for
its responsible forest
management. More articles from SCA Hygiene Products UK Ltd: |
