Siemens awarded Platinum medal in EcoVadis Sustainability Rating 2024
Since 2021, Siemens has significantly improved its
score by 19 points, moving from Silver in 2021 to Gold in 2023 to Platinum in
2024. The EcoVadis assessment evaluates 21 sustainability criteria across four
core themes: environment, labor and human rights, ethics, and sustainable
procurement.
“We are immensely proud of this achievement, and it is
a testament to our commitment to sustainability,” said Eva Riesenhuber, Global
Head of Sustainability at Siemens. “More than 90 percent of our business
enables our customers to achieve a positive sustainability impact in the areas
of decarbonization and energy efficiency, resource efficiency and circularity,
and people centricity and societal impact. We remain dedicated to scaling
sustainability impact.”
Siemens defines its environment, social and governance
(ESG) targets through the strategic framework DEGREE – tackling sustainability
from every angle. The technology company follows a holistic approach in six
fields of action: decarbonization, ethics, governance, resource efficiency,
equity and employability – with stringent and measurable key performance
indicators.
EcoVadis’ sustainability ratings are based on
international sustainability standards such as the Ten Principles of the UN
Global Compact, the International Labour Organization (ILO) conventions, the
Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards and the ISO 26000 standard. The
ratings provide an evidence-based analysis on performance and an actionable
roadmap for continuous improvement.
