CSC Recognized as One of the World’s Most
Sustainable IT Providers by Publishers of Dow Jones Sustainability
Indices
CSC (NYSE: CSC), a global leader in next-generation IT services
and solutions, today announced that it has received the “RobecoSAM
Industry Mover Sustainability 2017 Award,” based on its
environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices that ranked in
the top 15 percent of all companies.
RobecoSAM, a Swiss-based sustainability investing firm that
jointly publishes the globally recognized Dow Jones Sustainability
Indices (DJSI), analyzes an annual Corporate Sustainability
Assessment (CSA) from more than 3,400 companies in 60 different
industries to find out how listed companies are exercising
financially material economic, environmental and social
practices.
According to the IT Services and Internet Software Services
section of RobecoSAM’s CSA, CSC was recognized for its
sustainability improvement over the previous year and for being a
top company that:
- Shows strong growth in providing
services driven by increasing global internet penetration and by
the move towards mobile internet usage;
- Protects client privacy and secures
confidential data through rigorous enforcement of code of
conduct;
- Continues to attract and retain
qualified staff;
- Substitutes travel with conference
calls and other collaboration tools; and
- Makes investments in more efficient
data centers, which ideally are operated with renewable
energy.
According to RobecoSAM, sustainability challenges are shaping
companies’ competitive landscape, and companies that take the lead
in seizing opportunities and managing risks associated with these
challenges are best positioned to outperform their peers. This
year’s CSA report indicates that 1,500 investors representing over
$60 trillion in assets under management have committed to
integrating sustainability into their investment decisions.
“CSC is very proud to have been selected from such an elite
group of companies based on the work we do in the areas of
innovation, resource efficiency, product safety, client focus and
industry excellence,” said Mike Lawrie, chairman, president and
chief executive officer, CSC. “Being recognized at this level
further validates the results of our corporate responsibility
efforts.
RobecoSAM has been conducting its annual CSA since 1999. Each
year the study asks between 80-120 industry-specific questions that
are relevant to the companies’ success, but are under-researched in
a conventional financial analysis. As a recipient of the “Industry
Mover Sustainability Award,” CSC will be listed in RobecoSAM’s
“2017 Sustainability Yearbook,” which announces the world’s most
sustainable companies in each industry as determined by their CSA
score.
