MILFORD,
Mass., Dec. 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Waters
Corporation (NYSE: WAT) announced it has been named to the Dow
Jones Sustainability North America Index (DJSI North America) for
the third consecutive year, based on the strength of its
enterprise-wide ESG practices. The DJSI is informed by the S&P
Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA), an annual
evaluation of companies' sustainability practices.
Inclusion in the DJSI places Waters in the
top publicly traded companies in N.A. that lead the field in
sustainability.
"We are honored that Waters has once again been named to the
DJSI and for being recognized for the active commitment we
demonstrate to leave the world better than we found it," said Dr.
Udit Batra, President and CEO,
Waters Corporation. "Waters is making measurable progress towards
reducing emissions, increasing renewable energy, and aligning with
recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial
Disclosures (TCFD). I am perhaps most proud of our innovative
Waters Student Academy STEM education programming for historically
underrepresented students, which directly impacts cultivating more
diverse representation in science-related professions."
Inclusion in the DJSI places Waters among the top publicly
traded companies in North America
that lead the field in sustainability. It is based on completion of
