“It’s in our Un-carrier DNA to do the right thing, and we won’t
waver in that commitment,” said John Legere, President and CEO of
T-Mobile. “At T-Mobile, our customers and employees are heard and
not dismissed. I couldn’t be prouder to wear magenta every day
because this is a company that stands for what’s right – and we
won’t stop fighting for consumers in wireless and beyond!”
Over the last five years, T-Mobile’s Un-carrier movement has
changed the wireless industry for good, bringing even more choices
to consumers. This year, T-Mobile also committed to move to 100
percent renewable electricity by 2021, challenging Verizon and
AT&T to do the same and clean up their practices. The
Un-carrier has also landed nearly 50 national workplace awards
since 2013, including Best Places to Work honors for parents,
diversity, women, the LGBTQ community and more, and was given a
perfect 100 percent on the Corporate Equality Index by the Human
Rights Campaign.
“While the discourse around the world changed profoundly in
2017, a stronger voice emerged. This year we saw companies like
T-Mobile really stand out, letting the world know what they stand
for,” said Ethisphere’s CEO, Timothy Erblich. “I congratulate
everyone at T-Mobile for being recognized as one of the World's
Most Ethical Companies.”
In 2018, 135 honorees were recognized, spanning 23 countries and
57 industries. The twelfth class of honorees had record levels of
involvement with their stakeholders and their communities around
the world. Measuring and improving culture, leading authentically
and committing to transparency, diversity and inclusion were all
priorities for honorees.
The World's Most Ethical Companies assessment is based upon the
Ethisphere Institute’s Ethics Quotient® (EQ) framework, which
offers a quantitative way to assess a company’s performance in an
objective, consistent and standardized manner. The information
collected provides a comprehensive sampling of definitive criteria
of core competencies rather than all aspects of corporate
governance, risk, sustainability, compliance and ethics.
Scores are generated in five key categories: ethics and
compliance program (35 percent), corporate citizenship and
responsibility (20 percent), culture of ethics (20 percent),
governance (15 percent) and leadership, innovation and reputation
(10 percent). All companies that participate in the assessment
process receive their scores, providing them with valuable insights
into how they stack up against leading organizations.
Once again, the 2018 World’s Most Ethical Companies have proven
that operating with integrity leads to greater financial
performance. Research has found that, when indexed, listed World’s
Most Ethical Companies outperformed the U.S. Large Cap Index over
five years by 10.72 percent and over three years by 4.88 percent.
Ethisphere refers to this as the Ethics Premium.
