- Marks the fifth consecutive year BorgWarner has been included
- Reaffirms BorgWarner's environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) efforts
- Companies scored and ranked by KPI research and public survey findings
AUBURN HILLS, Mich., Dec. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- BorgWarner, a global product leader in delivering innovative and sustainable mobility solutions, has been awarded on Newsweek's list of America's Most Responsible Companies 2024. This prestigious award is presented by Newsweek and Statista Inc., the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider. The awards list was announced on Dec. 6, 2023, and can currently be viewed on Newsweek's website.
America's Most Responsible Companies ranking focuses on a holistic view of corporate responsibility that considers all three pillars of ESG: environment, social and corporate governance. The analysis is based on two metrics:
- KPI Research: The KPI research formed the first part of the detailed analysis. Over 30 KPIs were researched for the top 2,000 public companies by revenue with headquarters in the United States.
- Public Survey: The survey was the second part of the detailed analysis to evaluate the companies' corporate social responsibility (CSR) reputation. 17,000 U.S. residents were surveyed. Respondents were asked to select companies familiar to them and then to evaluate the company's CSR performance in general and in the three subdimensions: social, environmental and governance.
In the final step, an overall score was calculated for each company that had been analyzed. The final list recognizes the top 600 most responsible companies in the U.S., spanning 14 industries.
"We are thrilled to be recognized on Newsweek's list of America's Most Responsible Companies, for the fifth year in a row, among other highly respected companies," said Frédéric Lissalde, president and CEO, BorgWarner Inc. "Corporate responsibility is a core focus at BorgWarner, driving our culture, actions and every business decision we make. We are constantly reassessing our ESG programs and initiatives to adapt as needed and are pleased to see our team's efforts validated by Newsweek's award program."
