The World’s Most Ethical Companies assessment is grounded in
Ethisphere’s proprietary Ethics Quotient®, an extensive
questionnaire that requires companies to provide more than 240
different proof points on their culture of ethics; environmental,
social, and governance (ESG) practices; ethics and compliance
program; diversity, equity, and inclusion; and initiatives that
support a strong value chain. That data undergoes further
qualitative analysis by a panel of experts who spend thousands of
hours vetting and evaluating each year’s group of applicants. This
process serves as an operating framework to capture and codify
best-in-class ethics and compliance practices from organizations
across industries and from around the world.
“For 110 years, Booz Allen has empowered people to change the
world, and our employees’ commitment to upholding our
values—including ferocious integrity, unflinching courage, and
passionate service—is at the core of our success,” said Booz Allen
President and CEO Horacio Rozanski. “As AI and other technological
advancements rapidly transform our world, we are working every day
to bring trusted solutions to our clients’ critical missions
safely, responsibly, and at scale. We remain committed to upholding
the highest ethical standards across our business as we drive the
future forward together.”
“We are honored to receive this prestigious recognition for the
fifth consecutive year,” said Executive Vice President and Chief
Legal Officer Nancy Laben. “We hold ourselves to the highest
standards of corporate governance, integrity, and compliance, and
we are delighted by the recognition.”
Repeat inclusion on the World’s Most Ethical Companies list is
just one of Booz Allen’s many recent honors. The company has also
been recognized by the Human Rights Campaign’s Corporate Equality
Index, TIME’s World’s Best Companies, Newsweek’s America’s Most
Trustworthy Companies, Forbes’ World’s Top Companies for Women,
Forbes’ Best Employers for Diversity, Military Times’ Best
Employers for Veterans, USA Today’s America’s Climate Leaders, and
Disability:IN’s Best Places to Work.
Ethisphere’s 2024 Ethics Index, the collection of publicly
traded companies recognized as recipients of this year’s World’s
Most Ethical Companies designation, outperformed a comparable index
of large-cap companies by 12.3 percentage points over the past five
calendar years.
“It’s always inspiring to recognize the World’s Most Ethical
Companies®. Through the rigorous review process, we see the
dedication of these organizations to continually improving their
ethics, compliance, and governance practices to the benefit of all
stakeholders,” said Ethisphere’s Chief Strategy Officer and
Executive Chair Erica Salmon Byrne. “Companies that elevate
best-in-class cultures of ethics and integrity set a standard for
corporate citizenship for their peers and competitors to follow.
Congratulations to Booz Allen for achieving this honor and
demonstrating that strong ethics is good business.”
