The list highlights 100 companies that are performing best on
business issues that matter most to the U.S. public, from paying a
living wage and creating jobs to prioritizing accountability to all
stakeholders.
“It’s an honor to be included in the JUST 100,” said Neil Rees,
Agilent’s head of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG)
Programs. “It reflects the priority Agilent places on being a top
employer, supporting our customers’ sustainability efforts, and our
strong record of contributing to the prosperity of the communities
where we operate.”
To calculate the rankings, Just Capital and CNBC conducted a
representative poll of Americans to determine the issues of
greatest importance to them. Just Capital then evaluated the
policies and practices of 1,000 of the largest U.S. public
companies in those areas, based on publicly reported data.
Companies on the list perform much better than their Russell
1000 peers on worker compensation, pay equity, emissions reduction,
career development, supplier diversity, parental leave, and
customer privacy, according to Just Capital. They also have a
higher profit margin, return on equity, and dividend yield. See the
full Just Capital rankings, and how Agilent performed in each
category.
Agilent was also recently named to The Sustainability Yearbook
2024 by S&P Global. Only companies that score competitively in
their industry and peer group make the list, according to S&P
Global.
In addition, Agilent is certified as a Great Place to Work® in
27 countries and territories. In a recent independent survey, 89
percent of employees agreed that the company is a great employer.
