UPS Named to “World’s Most Ethical Companies” List
 UPS was named one of the World’s Most Ethical Companies by Ethisphere Magazine . The elite list of companies were recognized for strong leadership in ethics and compliance, advancement of industry discourse on social and ethical issues, and positive engagement in the communities in which they operate. UPS was the only transportation company on this list.
The editors of the magazine chose fewer than 100 companies from several thousand organizations that they analyzed over a six-month period. “This was a rigorous process that identified a select group of companies that were unequalled in their industries for their commitment to ethical leadership and corporate social responsibility. These organizations go beyond making statements about doing business ethically; they translate those words into action,” said Alex Brigham, executive editor of Ethisphere Magazine.
The process included reviewing companies’ codes of ethics, litigation and regulatory infraction histories; evaluating investment in innovation and sustainable business practices; looking at companies’ activities to improve corporate citizenship; studying nominations from senior executives, industry peers, suppliers and customers; and working with consumer action groups for feedback and rating.
