Nielsen has been included for the second consecutive year in RobecoSAM’s annual “Sustainability Yearbook” for 2019. Honored with the Bronze Class distinction, this marks our fourth sustainability-related recognition in the last 12 months. We were also honored to be included on JUST Capital’s 2018 “JUST 100” rankings as the industry leader for Media companies at #40 on the list, on the 2018 Dow Jones Sustainability (DJSI) North America and World indices, and on the 2019 Bloomberg Gender Equality Index (GEI).
"Wir gratulieren Nielsen zur Aufnahme in das Sustainability Yearbook 2019, das die weltweit leistungsstärksten Unternehmen im Branchenvergleich und in Bezug auf finanziell wichtige ESG-Kennzahlen vorstellt", sagte Daniel Wild, PhD, Co-CEO von RobecoSAM. "Das Yearbook, das in diesem Jahr unter der Marke SAM eingeführt wurde und nun einen verbesserten öffentlichen Zugang zu den Perzentil-Rankings aller Unternehmen bietet, bleibt eine äußerst glaubwürdige Quelle für Erkenntnisse über die Nachhaltigkeit von Unternehmen."
Since 2004, The Sustainability Yearbook has listed the world’s most sustainable companies in each industry as determined by their score in RobecoSAM’s annual Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA). The CSA is an annual evaluation of companies’ sustainability practices, covering thousands of listed companies around the world and hundreds of different relevant data points per company focused on economic, environmental and social factors that are relevant to companies’ long-term success. Companies’ performance on the CSA informs whether or not they are included on a number of different applicable indices, including DJSI North America and DJSI World.
Der CSA für professionelle Dienstleistungsunternehmen, dem Nielsen angehört, konzentriert sich auf die Bereiche, die für den nachhaltigen Geschäftserfolg von Unternehmen in dieser Branchenkategorie am wichtigsten sind, darunter Bereiche wie die Entwicklung des Humankapitals, die Gewinnung und Bindung von Talenten sowie hohe Standards für Integrität und ethisches Verhalten. Beim CSA 2018 erreichte Nielsen insgesamt das 91.
“We’re humbled by this recognition of our continued progress on the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) areas that matter most to our business and our stakeholders,” said Julia Wilson, Director, Global Responsibility & Sustainability, Nielsen. “This is a key aspect of our trust and transparency as a brand. We’re committed to continuing this work with a spirit of continuous improvement and collaboration to create new value across our business and beyond.”
