Whirlpool Corporation is the No. 3 overall spot on Newsweek’s 2023 list of America’s Most Responsible Companies. The annual recognition, acknowledging the top 500 most responsible companies in the United States across 14 industries, is presented by Newsweek and Statista Inc., the statistics portal and industry ranking provider.
«We feel incredibly honored and humbled to be named among the three most responsible companies in America – said Marc Bitzer, Chairman and CEO of Whirlpool Corporation -. While a tremendous amount of work has been done over this past year in the area of environmental sustainability, governance and social responsibility, this public recognition ultimately reflects our lifelong passion for “doing the right thing” ever since our company was founded 111 years ago.»
America’s Most Responsible Companies were selected based on publicly available key performance indicators derived from Social Responsibility Reports, Sustainability Reports, as well as an independent survey. The results are focused on company performance across environmental sustainability, social responsibility, and corporate governance while the independent survey asked U.S. citizens about their perception of company activities related to corporate social responsibility. This year, Whirlpool Corporation received its ranking due in part to continued progress on its ESG commitments.
