COMMERCE CITY, Colo. (March 27, 2013) – Atlas Copco has been named one of the world’s most ethical companies by the Ethisphere Institute. This ethical ranking, presented at the Global Ethics Summit in New York, recognizes companies that introduce best practices into corporate ethics.
“We are honored to have our business practices recognized by global organizations like the Ethisphere Institute,” said Jim Levitt, president, Atlas Copco North America LLC.
Atlas Copco is a signatory to the UN Global Compact, a strategic policy initiative for businesses that are committed to aligning their operations and strategies with ten universally accepted principles in the areas of human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption. And earlier this year, in its report on the 20 largest Swedish companies, Transparency International awarded Atlas Copco a score of 100% for its anti-corruption efforts.
