This report is an analysis of the voluntary environmental and social reporting of companies on the 2010 Forbes Diversified Industrial sector lists. Data were collected from corporate websites during the initial analysis period (dates shown below). A draft sector report was then made available online and letters were sent to all companies inviting them to review the analysis, to identify anything missed by our analysts, and to post additional material on their websites if they wished to improve their scores.

The Pacific Sustainability Index (PSI) Overview

the PSI Scoring System The Pacific Sustainability Index (PSI) uses two systematic questionnaires to analyze the quality of the sustainability reporting—a base questionnaire for reports across sectors and a sector-specific questionnaire for companies within the same sector. The selection of questions is based on, and periodically adjusted to, the most frequently-mentioned topics in over 1,900 corporate sustainability reports analyzed from 2002 through 2009 at the Roberts Environmental Center. The Roberts Environmental Center The Roberts Environmental Center is an environmental research institute at Claremont McKenna College (CMC). Its mission is to provide students of all the Claremont Colleges with a comprehensive and realistic understanding of today’s environmental issues and the ways in which they are being and can be resolved--beyond the confines of traditional academic disciplines and curriculum--and to identify, publicize, and encourage policies and practices that achieve economic and social goals in the most environmentally benign and protective manner. The Center is partially funded by an endowment from George R. Roberts (Founding Partner of Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. and CMC alumnus), other grants and gifts, and is staffed by faculty and students from the Claremont Colleges. Methodology Student analysts download relevant English language web pages from the main corporate website for analysis. Our scoring excludes data independently stored outside the main corporate website or available only in hard copy. When a corporate subsidiary has its own sustainability reporting, partial credit is given to the parent company when a direct link is provided in the main corporate website. We archive these web pages as PDF files for future reference. Our analysts use a keyword search function to search reporting of specific topics, they fill out a PSI scoring sheet (http://www.roberts.cmc.edu/PSI/scoringsheet.asp), and track the coverage and depths of different sustainability issues mentioned in all online materials. Scores and Ranks When they are finished scoring, the analysts enter their scoring results into the PSI database. The PSI database calculates scores and publishes them on the Center’s website. This sector report provides an in-depth analysis on sustainability reporting of the largest companies of the sector, as listed in the latest 2010 Forbes lists. Prior to publishing our sector report, we notify companies analyzed and encourage them to provide feedback and additional new online materials, which often improve their scores. What do the scores mean? We normalize all the scores to the potential maximum score. Scores of subsets of the overall score are also normalized to their potential maxima. The letter grades (A+, A, A-, B+, etc.), however, are normalized to the highest scoring company analyzed in the report. Grades of individual companies in the report might be different from grades posted online on the Roberts Environmental Center's website, since the normalization of scores of an individual company online is not limited to the companies analyzed in the sector report, but also includes other companies of the same sector irrespective of the year of analysis. Companies with scores in the highest 4% get an A+ and any in the bottom 4% get an F. We assign these by dividing the maximum PSI score obtained in the sector into 12 equal parts then rounding fractional score up or down. This means that A+ and F are under-represented compared to the other grades. The same technique applies to the separate categories of environmental and social scores. Thus, we grade on the curve. We assume that the highest score obtained in the sector and any scores near it represent the state-of-the-art for that sector and deserve an A+.

PSI Scoring in a Nutshell

Our analysis of sustainability reporting has a set of basic topics applied to all organizations as well as a series of sector-specific topics. The topics are divided into environmental and social categories—the latter including human rights—and into three types of information: 1) intent, 2) reporting, and 3) performance. 1. Intent The “Intent” topics are each worth two points; one point for a discussion of intentions, vision, or plans, and one point for evidence of specific actions taken to implement them. 2. Reporting The “Reporting” topics are each worth five points and are either quantitative (for which we expect numerical data) or qualitative (for which we don’t). For quantitative topics, one point is available for a discussion, one point for putting the information into perspective (i.e. awards, industry standards, competitor performance, etc., or if the raw data are normalized by dividing by revenue, number of employees, number of widgets produced, etc.), one point for the presence of an explicit numerical goal, one point for numerical data from a single year, and one point for similar data from a previous year. For qualitative topics, there are three criteria summed up to five points: 1.67 points for discussion, 1.67 points for initiatives or actions, and 1.67 points for perspective. 3. Performance For each “Reporting” topic, two performance points are available. For quantitative topics, one point is given for improvement from the previous reporting period, and one point for better performance than the sector average (based on the data used for this sector report normalized by revenue). For qualitative topics, we give one point for any indication of improvement from previous reporting periods, and one point for perspective. The 11 “human rights” topics are scored differently, with five “reporting” points; 2.5 points for formally adopting a policy or standard and 2.5 points for a description of monitoring measures. In addition, there are two “performance” points; one point for evidence of actions to reinforce policy and one point for a quantitative indication of compliance.

Environmental Reporting Scores

Environmental reporting scores are based on the degree to which the company discusses its emissions, energy sources and consumption, environmental incidents and violations, materials use, mitigations and remediation, waste produced, and water used.

Overall

This graph illustrates the average PSI in three categories--overall, environmental, and social--breakdown by countries. Since our sample size follows the world's largest companies from the Fortune list, several countries have only one company score to represent the whole country's sustainability reporting in the sector.

Visual cluster analysis multivariate data of the sort produced by the PSI are difficult to summarize. Here we have created radar diagrams of the performance of each company analyzed in the sector by its environmental and social intent, reporting, and performance sorted by company ranking. Maximum scores will match the outer sides of the hexagon, which total up to 100 percent.

While there is little room for improvement, the company should consider including more data regarding its environmental performance to show the impact of its environmental goals on its emissions and waste production.

The 2011 ALFA Sustainability Report expresses a conscious effort towards the betterment of both environmental and social issues. The company abides by the guidelines laid out in the United Nations Global Compact, effectively stimulating a tolerant and progressive workplace. Furthermore, ALFA dutifully respects and protects the environment in simple ways. Although a few omissions in the report deserve to be touched upon, overall the company shows a respectable effort to better the areas and the environment around it. The report delineates the company’s commitment towards respecting human rights, labor conditions, the environment, and anti-corruption practices. It discusses the company’s policies on many important issues, such as its tolerance of free association, abolishment of child labor, and elimination of discrimination towards employees. However, the company does not mention a policy on sexual harassment, nor does it discuss employee satisfaction surveys; the lack of both of these topics makes the company’s claims regarding its social responsibility questionable. ALFA makes attempts to clean up the environment. It increasingly recycles and works to use less environmentally-detrimental packaging materials. Additionally, the company strives to protect biodiversity in local areas. A flaw to its presentation on the environment, though, is the lack of data. While numbers are sporadically dropped throughout the report, very few are reported as a whole. It would immensely benefit readers to see data tables with numbers on total energy used and the amount of hazardous waste produced and released.

Alstom’s 2010/2011 Sustainability Development and Social Responsibility Report, 2010 Code of Ethics, and 2012 web pages demonstrate the company’s commitment to environmental sustainability and social issues. Alstom does a commendable job of including its report and Code of Ethics directly in its website on dedicated Ethics and Sustainability pages. A notable example of Alstom’s commitment to the environment is its comprehensive overview of its environmental management structure. Its detailed environmental challenges and solutions section was worthy of praise as well. In most aspects, their report did a very good job of covering most scored areas, with only a few points missing, mostly due to a lack of details regarding initiatives and actions. Some other areas that could use improvement and would increase Alstom’s score on the PSI include providing more data regarding its social efforts and contribution. For instance, nothing on the Alstom report gave any info regarding monetary environmental or social contributions in general. Furthermore, the lack of a policy on fair compensation, working hours, or degrading punishment hurt the company’s social score further. Though Alstom is doing a good job overall in becoming more environmentally sustainable and socially responsible, more quantitative data and descriptions of charitable expenditures would raise Alstom’s PSI score.

Bidvest does not provide a dedicated corporate sustainability report. Although Bidvest states its commitment to the environment, they often refer to environmentally friendly practices in economic terms – determining whether they will yield bigger profits. The company has no apparent corporate environmental management structure, but rather leaves environmental management to the discretion of its individual subsidiaries. Bidvest encourages its subsidiaries to draft their own official policies and goals, but has no overarching company environmental policy. Due to the fragmented nature of the company, it lacks comprehensive quantitative data. The only overall environmental metrics it provides are total water usage and greenhouse gas emissions. Bidvest should strive to provide more complete environmental data and implement company-wide policies. Socially, Bidvest performs better. Despite its decentralized nature, the company has undertaken measures to ensure stakeholder consultation across all aspects of its business. Due to South Africa’s history of apartheid, there are legal requirements for eliminating discrimination and employment equality; the report claims that Bidvest has shifted from a compliance mindset towards one of transforming their management as a commercial priority. It has a robust code of conduct and an ethics hotline for reporting violations. Within the community, Bidvest sponsors events such as the Bidvest Unity Walk, which holds the Guinness World Record for largest charity walk. One area in which the company could improve its social performance is with regards to health and safety measures; once again due to its decentralized nature, there is no established company-wide practice in health, safety, or emergency response.

China Resources Enterprise demonstrates a disturbing lack of transparency regarding both environmental and social reporting, as illustrated by the complete absence of any quantitative data on its website and Corporate Social Responsibility report. Although the company claims to support the movement towards corporate sustainability and energy conservation, there is no numerical evidence indicating that any progress is being made; China Resources Ent’s CSR simply offers vague visionary statements and brief anecdotes in a half-hearted attempt to illustrate the company’s supposed commitment to environmental policy CRE does appear to make a genuine effort in the realm of community outreach and employee volunteerism, providing ample anecdotal evidence illustrating corporate action in this area (although, again, no quantitative data is provided). The Disaster Relief program is particularly admirable. It appears that internal social policy is not a priority for CRE, however, as the company fails to address employee issues or provide a cohesive code of conduct. Overall, China Resources Ent proves to be troublingly incompetent in regards to environmental and social reporting.

Danaher is devoid of sustainability quantitative information. Nowhere in their Standards of Conduct, annual report, or web pages could I find physical numbers relating to any sort of meaningful sustainability measurements. The annual report only focuses on environmental concerns insofar as the selling of water and petroleum to various sectors, and not at all on the sustainability of its sorts. The Standards of Conduct is lacking in depth, rarely provides any initiatives or actions related to the discussion of social sustainability matters, nor it discusses ways to reinforce their policies to any significant detail. I have a hard time believing that a company the size of Danaher’s does not keep any sorts of measurements relating to social or environmental sustainability (even simple things like Total Energy use, or Women in Management), and it would serve them well to report quantitative measurements at least to some degree. The annual report is loaded with thousands of numbers relating to stock price, gross incomes, and expenditures by sector, so it would be a relatively small task to throw in internal environmental expenditures into the 130+ page report each year. They clearly have the resources to do so.

DCC plc’s Annual Report and Accounts and its Business Conduct Guidelines, details a small amount of information regarding the conglomerate’s environmental reporting and social policy. Although this is DCC plc’s third annual sustainability report, the report does not mention the corporation’s environmental vision or policy. DCC plc discusses its CO2 emissions and its energy used, but neglects to report any other environmental quantitative data such as its water usage, solid waste disposed of, hazardous waste produced, or its hazardous waste released to the environment. The company would improve its overall score if it included these data and measures. Despite these deficiencies, DCC plc addresses the threat of climate change. The corporation discusses its DCC Carbon Management Plan, which sets objectives for measuring, reducing, and reporting carbon emissions. The DCC Energy and Reporting Guidelines, based on the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, describe the sources included in the company’s carbon footprint. Furthermore, the company reports its environmental fines and notices of environmental violations and provides context for each of these situations. DCC plc emphasizes that health and safety (especially in the Energy and Environmental divisions) is a key priority for all divisional and subsidiary managing directors. Health and safety resources have recently been strengthened following the acquisition of two oil terminals in Scotland. The conglomerate also reports its lost workday case rate and its incident/accident rate. The frequency of accidents that resulted in lost time dropped from 2.8% to 2.5% between 2010 and 2011. Despite the company’s emphasis on health and safety, it does not report its health and safety citations. Moreover, although DCC plc published a set of business ethics guidelines for its employees, the guidelines do not address issues such as sexual harassment, reasonable working hours, or fair compensation of employees. DCC plc could improve its PSI score by including a more detailed social policy that discusses these factors.

While Emerson’s subsidiary companies may have specific data, goals, and actions, it does not appear the parent company is wholly environmentally responsible or conscious as a conglomerate. Emerson lacks discussion of its environmental management structure, environmental management system, environmental education, environmental accounting, green purchasing, climate change, ecosystem conservation, or biodiversity. Furthermore, Emerson reports no environmental or social quantitative data whatsoever, though it mentions energy, renewable energy, and waste disposal briefly. Emerson reiterates its value of integrity and ethical behavior in several places and has policies on all human rights issues, but could improve by clearly and thoroughly describing their policies and ways to reinforce them. There is also no contact information for an environmental department or corporate social responsibility department in which to correspond, only the generic corporate address. Lastly, while Emerson’s Corporate Citizenship document and its web site are easy to navigate, the inclusion of charts, graphs, and pictures would enhance its overall presentation. However, Emerson should be commended on its dedication to community involvement, contributing $22.7 million to 1,980 charities and non-profit organizations, in fields from arts and culture, civic, education, health and human services, and youth. It is also a leading and innovative company, since new products represented 37% of its sales revenue, and $696 million was invested towards research and development in 2010. Emerson should channel its forward-thinking technologies towards manufacturing products that are energy efficient, preserve resources, and reduce the environmental impact on the planet.

General Electric has stated commitment to sustainability, and this commitment is evident throughout their Corporate Sustainability Report and associated web pages. The company clearly outlines anticipated social, environmental, and economic challenges, and their plans to address them in a sustainable manner. Their central environmental sustainability initiative is the ecomagination, a company-wide strategy that focuses on solving environmental problems while driving economic growth; ecomagination products account for 12% of GE’s revenues. Although GE includes quantitative data in many areas, there are often years missing from the data. For example, water usage is only listed for 2006 and 2010. It is not clear why their records are incomplete. It is clear that they have the ability to report the data – as it was listed for 2006 and the current year – so there is no reason not to report it for every year. Socially, GE performs well. It has launched the healthymagination initiative, with the goal of improving health around the world – be it through better exercise and nutrition programs in the United States or access to modern, affordable health services in impoverished nations. With regards to its employees, GE recently revised its Growth Values – the central premises that guide employee development – and began updating the curriculum for its Crotonville Leadership program, which is aimed at providing leaders within the company with the skills to meet challenges and increase effectiveness. GE also has a Global Learning program available to all employees, which expanded its offerings and added new languages in 2010. The company’s code of conduct clearly addresses harassment, bribery, discrimination, and other areas of social importance.

Honeywell International does not do a very good job of reporting its environmental sustainability practices through its 2012 web pages. The company does include a 2011 code of conduct, but at this time of our analysis, we did not find a corporate sustainability report. The company has many good policies and initiatives regarding environmental and social sustainability on the website, but fails to provide more details about important categories such as biodiversity and ecosystem conservation. In addition, Honeywell includes many details about their energy efficiency goals, but no current or previous data is mentioned. In fact, Honeywell doesn’t report any quantitative data so there is no proof that the company is following through in its sustainability initiatives. While the company does include many energy efficiency solutions videos on its website, they lack the content to provide any value to its environmental sustainability. For social sustainability reporting, the company has a code of conduct, but it does not include much information beyond basic policies about many important human rights violations. Overall, Honeywell International does not have enough environmental information, especially in the quantitative area, and needs to include much more information in its code of conduct.

Hutchison Whampoa presents a very limited corporate sustainability report (CSR). Almost no quantitative figures are given, and only very brief mention is given to any environmental issues.Hutchison Whampoa reports a formal Environment, Social, and Governance Committee and names some of its members. This, however, is the extent to which the company reports on its environmental sustainability efforts.The company presents more information on its social sustainability efforts. Manny employee volunteer and donation opportunities are mentioned, as well as numerous accounts of community investments. Such expenditures include donations to the Erasmus Medical Center for a study on child development and a rehabilitation center in Tanzania. Hutchison’s efforts should be commended; however, no unified figure on community investments is reported. Hutchison’s CSR features a heavy emphasis on social sustainability efforts. We recommend that quantitative environmental data, such as greenhouse gas emissions and energy used, be gathered and reported in order to improve the company’s PSI score.

Ingersoll-Rand’s 2011 corporate sustainability report, 2012 web pages, and code of business conduct represent an excellent effort in reporting the conglomerate’s responsibility in environmental and social issues.Ingersoll-Rand presents thorough environmental sustainability figures, including greenhouse gas emissions, water used, waste (hazardous and nonhazardous) disposed, and energy used. Special attention should be drawn to Ingersoll-Rand’s dramatic progress in decreasing greenhouse gas emissions—the conglomerate released around 1,500 thousand metric tons of CO2 equivalent in 2008 and 750 thousand metric tons of CO¬2 equivalent in 2010. Ingersoll-Rand further demonstrates commitment to environmental sustainability through its executives’ active involvement in various climate conferences and initiatives such as the Environmental Defense Fund’s Climate Corps Conference. Finally, Ingersoll-Rand devotes a significant portion of its website to the discussion of green building, providing resources for those who are targeting LEED certification and presenting evidence of its own commitment to building green.Ingersoll-Rand’s social sustainability reporting is as thorough as its environmental sustainability reporting. The company reports important quantitative data such as a breakdown of its workforce by race and gender, the total recordable incident rate, and the lost workday case rate. It should be noted, however, that Ingersoll-Rand’s graphs on the incident and lost workday rates do not include clear units, which make the figures presented ambiguous. Also, a breakdown of the workforce by age is unavailable, as Ingersoll-Rand clearly states that its human resources policy precludes them from collecting age information on its employees. The conglomerate reports a robust employee development program with institutions such as the Ingersoll-Rand University. Employee volunteerism is also encouraged—Ingersoll-Rand’s China employees are reported to have volunteered with children’s’ organizations and to have cleaned up litter in community spaces.

Itausa’s annual sustainability report and its web pages detail an adequate amount of information concerning the corporation’s environmental performance and its social policy Itausa developed a unique environmental initiative called “Essence of Sustainability,” which represents eight environmental challenges for bank management. These factors include diversity, climate change, stakeholder engagement, and social-environmental criteria. The bank concentrates on these factors in their quest for sustainable operations. Moreover, along with an inventory of greenhouse gas emissions, Itausa has also measured the fixed carbon content in the planted forests that supply the corporation’s industrial plants. An analysis considering both emissions and sequestration reveal that one industrial plant, Duratex, has a higher carbon fixation rate than its emissions rate. However, although Itausa reports its total emissions, energy consumption and water use, other quantitative data such as its recycled solid waste, hazardous waste produced, and environmental fines is not reported in English. The company could improve its overall score if it included these measures. Itausa signed the UN Global Compact, which lists 10 principles essential to human rights, labour, and anti-corruption. Furthermore, the company describes its contributions to community development and education. For example, Itausa established The Unibanco Institute, which contributes toward the human development of at-risk youth. Despite these contributions, Itausa does not discuss its employee volunteerism. The company would improve its score if it described its employee volunteerism, as well as its policy regarding women in management, and employee satisfaction surveys.

ITT sustainability reporting seems to be in its infancy. There is much reporting on awards received, but no hard sustainability data whatsoever. The social reporting is marginal, as it cover just the basic elements of code of conduct without any specific plan of execution, monitoring, and performance reporting. Community involvements are part of a substantial element in its reporting, indicative of the early stage of sustainability reporting. There are much yet to be done in this field of sustainability reporting and we hope to see more sustainability reporting from ITT in the near future.

Jardine Matheson presents limited material on environmental and social sustainability. The conglomerate presents no information on its environmental impact. Its discussion of social sustainability is more substantial with detailed reports on community development and education initiatives such as Mindset and Health in Mind. Jardine Matheson’s subsidiaries do have corporate sustainability reports that have more thorough environmental sustainability information, but it is the policy of REC to only score information covering all aspects of a company’s production. To improve, it is suggested that Jardine Matheson centralize its various sustainability reporting efforts in order to achieve a stronger score.

Keppel does an impressive job of reporting its environmental sustainability practices through its Sustainability Report and web pages. The company effectively outlines its social and environmental policies along with details on its actions to fulfill its commitments. One example of the company’s initiative is the health and safety organizational structure. Keppel explains how the system is organized, and how it is applied to all operational sites under the company’s control. In addition, there is an impressive amount of information about the efforts to mitigate climate change. One of Keppels’ specific efforts included switching its power consumption to green electricity, which has resulted in a reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by 30,000 tones. One area in which the company could improve is in the workforce profile. Keppel mentions the gender distribution or workers but does not discuss any efforts being taken to avoid discrimination in the future. The same can be said for racial and age distribution of workers: the company has clearly the distribution of its workforce but it should try to come up with ways to improve in the future. There is some quantitative data about total energy used and greenhouse gas emissions; however, there are many crucial areas omitted, such as reporting on hazardous waste released to the environment. In addition, the company could improve by explaining its goals for the future, which gives it a standard to strive for in the future.

Koç Holding emphasizes the responsibility of corporations to protect the environment and support their local communities in areas such as education. However, the company’s 2010 Corporate Social Responsibility report lacks any data tables, sporadically presents numbers, and rarely mentions previous years. While the company clearly attempts to convey an environmentally and socially conscious report, a few details should be attended to. The company focuses on enhancing environmental practices and conserving limited resources. A key component to its work is recycling water; with this practice, the company can immensely reduce the amount of water used. Koç Holding used 33.4% more recycled water in 2010, reducing the amount of water used by 2.1 million m3. The company also devotes much of its discussion to education of its employees and the public. 51% of all Koç Holding’s investments in social developments are dedicated to education. An example of this commitment is the VFK Education Scholarship, which the corporation established in 1969. In the company’s own words, the purpose of this scholarship is to help those “who are talented but have limited resources and to help them become individuals who make a difference in the world.” There are many places for improvement within the report itself. While some numbers are shown, they are scattered throughout the report in a non-systematic and confusing manner. There is not a single data table within the report, making it both nearly impossible to analyze trends and improvements, as well as difficult to easily and accessibly view the company’s impacts. In terms of human rights, the company has many policies. It does not, however, mention anything about sexual harassment or political contributions. Additionally, the report fails to mention any sort of monitoring or reinforcement of the employee policies. Overall, the report depicts Koç Holding as dedicated to helping the economy of Turkey, tackling environmental and educational issues, and helping its own employees prosper. By adding data tables and more monitoring/action to reinforce its employee policies, the report would improve immensely.

Noble group does a good job in hitting most of the qualitative basis regarding official policy and sustainable social practices. They also identify a large number of environmentally conscious actions they participate in as well across the globe, but fail to give any quantitative measurements aside from energy use (which was buried and hard to find). Because of the vast infrastructure the company has set up and the copious amounts of meticulous data collected on unrelated (to sustainability) sets of data within the company, it should be a simple talk of collecting quantitative social and environmental data if they haven’t do so already, or reporting it if they do. Based on the way that Noble likes to present itself and the amount of data they require from their subsidiaries, I would not be surprised if the data were already collected at each location, it simply has to be synthesized and put in the annual report. The gaps in the social reporting come mostly in the workplace profile area. There is no mention of women in management, employee satisfaction, diversity, gender, or age profile, etc. If Noble actually follows through on their policy statements, then this sort of reporting would likely help their score.

To call Platinum Equity’s Corporate Responsibility section a report would be excessively generous. The two page PDF does not contain a single number. The word “environment” is not mentioned once. Platinum Equity merely praises itself on its five philanthropic projects; of these projects, there is no mention of employee volunteerism, simply that they “support” different community organizations. Overall, this corporation’s report is useless fluff, at the most.

Royal Philips Electronics

SSA

Royal Philips Electronics’ 2011 annual report integrates financial and corporate responsibility components. In addition to financial figures, the integrated report publishes a wealth of information on environmental and social sustainability. Royal Philips’ environmental sustainability section presents nearly all relevant metrics in the PSI. Quantitative data such as environmental investment, energy used, water used, and greenhouse gas emissions are thoroughly reported. Royal Phillips also publishes data on total waste generated back to the year 2007, though a breakdown of the waste figures into solid waste recycled, solid waste disposed, and hazardous waste produced is only available for the current year. For a higher score, we recommend that a breakdown of waste figures into the subcategories mentioned above be provided for past years as well. Philips also does well in reporting qualitative data, shown in its discussion of biodiversity and the various initiatives it has undertaken, including its partnership with the International Union for the Conservation of Nature. The social sustainability section of Royal Philips Electronics’ 2011 CSR is no less detailed than its environmental counterpart. The conglomerate reports many initiatives that help the career development of its employees. For example, programs such as the Core Curricula allow workers to take online courses on marketing, sales, and customer services for free. Available to selected candidates are Philips’ leadership development programs, which are run in conjunction with business schools. A plethora of quantitative social sustainability data is available, including lost workday case rate, employee turnover rate, and a count of reported health and safety violations. A notable absence in Philips’ roster of social quantitative data, however, is a measure of accident rates. Philips also provides a percentage breakdown of the conglomerate’s workforce by gender and age and takes an extra step by further segmenting gender data by seniority in the organization. It should be noted, however, that Philips does not report an analysis of its workforce by ethnicity. Royal Philips Electronics has shown a substantial effort in reporting its environmental and social sustainability. The CSR presents the majority of information measured by the PSI, though there are still some areas that can be improved upon. We recommend that Philips publish a breakdown of its past total waste figures by solid waste recycled, solid waste disposed, hazardous waste emitted, and hazardous waste produced. In terms of social sustainability reporting, the accident rate is a notable gap in Philips’ reporting and should be filled in for an improved score.

The Siemens website, 2011 annual report, 2010 sustainability report, environmental portfolio, and supplier code of conduct provide ample information to prove the company’s commitment to society and the environment. A striking example of social involvement from Siemens in the city of Mumbai is support for an orphanage in the Bandra district. Within St. Catherine’s orphanage, Siemens provides accommodations for 100 children to have a “normal” upbringing. Siemens is responsible for housing, feeding and educating all of these children, as well as financing renovations to the St. Catherine’s building. According to the Siemens sustainability report, it is a “considerable financial contribution.” Unfortunately, no concrete numbers are provided to quantify this social investment, but nonetheless the project reflects well on Siemens. Perhaps more impressive still is the fashion in which Siemens employees willingly donate much of their time to volunteer at St. Catherine’s, providing education and a family atmosphere for the orphans. Environmentally, Siemens has monitored an impressive variety of information. Greenhouse gas production has been steadily falling, with about a 500 thousand ton CO2 equivalent drop since the year 2007. Siemens also keeps close tabs on its waste and water use. However, Siemens fails to report numerical data for any sort of fines, violations, or even societal investments. Still, Siemens is investing in the research and development of green technologies and advocating a world powered increasingly by clean, renewable energy. The only pertinent financial figure included on the Siemens website is a goal to invest 25 million Euros in their Energy Efficiency Program (EEP). Finally, Siemens treats its employees well all across the globe. Recently, the first companywide employee survey was issued to nearly 275,000 employees. Such a large undertaking is impressive, and Siemens management received valuable feedback to help improve the company as a whole. Discrimination on any basis is dealt with effectively, with programs in place for employees to report and eliminate any such behavior.

Sime Darby's nuanced approach involves a focus on ‘four pillars – Environment, Community, Education and Sports. Sime Darby’s environmental conservation and social welfare programs are mainly focused on the local population and local environment. The company’s commitment to its CSR program is further enforced by the active support it receives from the President & Group Chief Executive of the company. Though Sime Darby actively conducts various sustainability programs in the surrounding communities, the lack of monitoring over its own functioning makes it difficult to have an accurate estimation of the company’s environmental and social footprint. Sime Darby has conducted various biodiversity and environment related programs with a focus on both conservation and regeneration. Right from resource and energy consumption to waste management and supplier screening Sime Darby displays a lack of environmental considerations with regard to their industrial and organizational functioning. There are currently almost no quantitative figures on their website. The next step forward for the company would be to review its functioning and introduce technologies and polices to reduce their environmental impact.

SK Group’s 2010 Environmental Report and 2012 web pages demonstrate the company’s overall commitment to environmental sustainability. SK Group does a good job of including its environmental report directly on its website, making it easy to find. Additionally, websites of the subsidiaries of SK Group (SK C&C, SK Energy, etc.) all include sections covering their social contributions and volunteerism. However, we were unable to include this information in our scoring because our policy is to only score information that is available from the parent website. A notable example of SK Group’s commitment to the environment is its attempt at creating a comprehensive environmental report covering the many industries in which its subsidiaries work. Their high volunteer participation rate of 95.1%, with 14.1 hours worked per person, was also notable. Other striking examples include the “Great Green Wall” project, which planted one million trees in China in 2009, and the award of scholarships to 490 low income children in South Korea. Some areas that could use improvement and would increase SK Group’s score on the PSI include providing a company Code of Conduct, and showing more data regarding their workforce makeup and employment. For instance, nothing on the SK Group website gave any insight into the ethnicities, age, education, satisfaction, or gender breakdown of the company. Furthermore, the lack of a Code of Conduct or Code of Ethics resulted in a significant loss of points in the areas covering bribery, worker’s rights, and harassment. Also, though SK Group does provide current quantitative data for a good number of categories, it often neglects to set goals for itself in the future. Though SK Group is doing a good job overall in becoming more environmentally accountable, there is little year-to-year improvement seen throughout the report. Furthermore, the inclusion of workforce information and a Code of Conduct would significantly raise SK Group’s score.

The Corporate Responsibility Report of Textron Company is missing environmental and social policy statements, along with a multitude of other environmental factors. While it presents data on energy use, waste disposal, and greenhouse gases, it narrowly discusses recycling and hazardous waste release, Textron could benefit from providing more information from previous years, and from giving actual data values along with data in terms of percentage or revenue. Furthermore, the report only refers to climate change and green initiatives when stating that laws and regulations may increase environmental expenditures, but does not clarify its position on these issues elsewhere. •While Textron mentions the Vision 20/15 program, it does not explicitly explain how it will achieve the 20 percent reduction in energy use, greenhouse gas emissions and waste disposal by 2015, or the current status of meeting these environmental goals. More generally, both the Corporate Responsibility Report and Textron’s website could use more detailed information on the company’s position on environmental and social factors, as the text was brief and vague. However, Textron’s Corporate Responsibility Report was visually appealing and easy to follow with many colors, pictures, graphs, and banners. Also, Textron Charitable Giving should be commended for donating over 5 million dollars for workforce development and education, and healthy families and vibrant communities. •The Business Conduct Guidelines poses several possible conflicts of interest, but lacks information on Textron’s stance on anti-corruption, fair compensation, reasonable working hours, degrading treatment, and free association of employees. It also mentions the Global Anti-Corruption Compliance Policy, but the link provided was nowhere to be found. Overall, Textron has much to improve on in order to reflect a socially and environmentally conscientious conglomerate.

The ThyssenKrupp Corporate Sustainability Report contains is very good at giving examples of the extent that its environmental goals have been implemented. For example, ThyssenKrupp gives a lot of information about how its blast furnaces have been carefully developed with respect to the communities they operate in and the total amount of waste and pollution they generate. The company also gives good, contextualized information on its green research and very clearly states how these technologies have been implemented throughout the company and the steel industry in general. This information demonstrates that the company is taking a proactive approach to minimizing the costs it imposes on the surrounding environment and bettering itself on its own initiative, rather than just purchasing environmentally friendly input materials. Finally, the technical glossary the company provides at the end of the report is very useful, as the company frequently uses technical vocabulary throughout the report. The glossary helps the reader understand the steel making process, its by-products and environmental costs.

Tyco International provides a comprehensive and detailed Corporate Responsibility Report, illustrating a genuine commitment to both social and environmental policy. The company has demonstrated an impressive effort in the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, as demonstrated by its “fleet overhaul” of service vehicles. In addition, Tyco provides quantitative environmental goals for each period, indicating a dedication to improvement in sustainability. This commitment to environmental responsibility is not only limited to the company itself, however, as Tyco provides a comprehensive Guide to Supplier Social Responsibility as well. While Tyco demonstrates a clear investment in environmental policy, there is room for improvement in the area of quantitative reporting. For instance, no data is provided regarding energy used or disposed waste. However, the company is notably thorough in its presentation of data regarding hazardous waste produced and water used. Furthermore, Tyco International’s CSR report highlights the company’s devotion to social responsibility. The “Safety, Health, and Wellness” section indicates that the employees’ well-being is a priority of the corporation, and the thorough reporting of Total Recordable Incident Rate and Lost Time Incident Rate illustrates consistent improvement in both categories. Regarding community involvement, Tyco’s international Water Access Initiative and South African ADT Teach program are especially notable. Finally, the company’s dedication to workplace ethics and integrity is clearly demonstrated in a detailed and organized Guide to Ethical Conduct. While issues such as bribery and political contributions are thoroughly addressed, Tyco is notably lacking in policy regarding specific employee rights such as reasonable working hours and the right to collective bargaining. Despite such minor issues, Tyco International’s CSR report and related documents are, overall, very impressive.

United Technologies’ 2011 Annual Report provides some information on environmental and social matters. The web pages touch on the initiatives and stances on environmental issues the company has taken, but leave out detailed information and quantitative data for most issues. Although there is little information to provide evidence that the company has strong environmental performance, a Supplier Energy Management guidebook is provided to suppliers to encourage reduced energy use. The company also has set solid sustainability goals for 2011 to 2015 to reduce environmental impacts. United Technologies has a thorough Code of Conduct, as well as supplementary guides on topics such as corporate giving, but does not provide quantitative information to prove the successes mentioned qualitatively. In 2010 the company received the Stanley C. Pace Leadership in Ethics Award, and it appears to care for its employees through the forums provided for various demographic groups to come together. United Technologies provides basic information on environmental issues and its social conduct, but can improve its score by fleshing out its reporting with more detail and quantitative data.

Wesfarmers’ annual sustainability report reveals a clear commitment to environmental and social responsibility. Nearly all of the points in the PSI were addressed, and sufficient data were presented. In order to improve transparency, Wesfarmers provided data for each of the separate companies within the conglomerate, along with a group total. In addition, initiatives within certain companies are highlighted. For example, it is reported that 99% of Bannings timber products are sourced from low risk plantations or other sustainable operations. It is also highlighted that Kmart will begin offering shopping bags made from 100% recycled materials. Particularly notable is the 2012 Reconciliation Action Plan, which is a sixteen page report that details how Wesfarmers is working to build relationships with the indigenous aboriginal people of Australia. Wesfarmers is trying the bridge the gap between Aboriginal and non-indigenous Australians through the implementation of programs that incorporate Aboriginal people into the workforce. The key target areas are identified as “creating opportunities,” “building relationships,” and “building respect.” For each of these target areas, actions, targets, and a timeline are provided. With these programs and initiatives, it is evident Wesfarmers is dedicated to making a positive impact on the Aboriginal communities.
