Nov 2011: Value rating on sustainability

Tomorrows Value Rating is a rating system and ranking table for the sustainability practices of leading companies.  The table generates a measure of a company’s sustainability performance through a standardised benchmarking methodology covering fourteen key areas.  A recent article displayed that many blue chip organisations haven’t embedded sustainability fully and are at a greater risk of losing trust of stakeholders than those that have.

The rating system understands that in terms of sustainability:

Some companies get and understand sustainability and some don’t – at least not yet.
Organisations have a process to weigh up conflicting priorities and make sure that sustainability priorities are considered when they are making important decisions.
Some companies can talk a good game, with well-produced reports that cover the required ground, but do not implement sustainability in practice.

Those companies that did rank highly include: Campbell’s, Danone, General Electric, HP, Intel, Nestle and Nike.
