Like many listed companies, Compass’ CR performance is rated by independent organisations that assess the extent to which companies effectively manage social, environmental and ethical matters.
As a signatory to the United Nations Global Compact, we are also committed to taking action to support and uphold each of the principles it describes in relation to business integrity, human rights and the environment.
The Dow Jones Sustainability Index (‘DJSI’) assesses companies’ corporate responsibility strategies in terms of corporate governance, economic performance and impact on the environment. The results of the 2009 DJSI assessment praised Compass for an improvement in the scope of our quantitative reporting in such areas as environmental reporting.
Since 2005, we have continued to meet the criteria for inclusion in the UK’s FTSE4Good Index. The FTSE4Good Index aims to measure the performance of companies that meet globally recognised CR standards and to facilitate investment in those companies where such issues are a deciding factor for investors.
