Rockwell Automation, the world’s largest company dedicated to industrial automation and information, has been recognized by the Ethisphere Institute as one of the 2018 World’s Most Ethical Companies. This is the tenth year that the Ethisphere Institute has named Rockwell Automation to the distinguished list of 135 global companies that influence and drive positive change and improve ethical leadership and corporate behavior. 

“Integrity and honesty is part of our corporate DNA, and I am proud that Ethisphere is again recognizing the work our employees do to live our company’s values every day,” said Blake Moret, Chairman and CEO, Rockwell Automation. “Acting with integrity, ethics and respect for each other is not only the right thing to do, but it is also an imperative for growing our company as we provide long-term value.”

“While the discourse around the world changed profoundly in 2017, a stronger voice emerged. Global corporations operating with a common rule of law are now society’s strongest force to improve the human condition. This year we saw companies increasingly finding their voice. The World’s Most Ethical Companies in particular continued to show exemplary leadership,” explained Ethisphere’s CEO, Timothy Erblich. “I congratulate everyone at Rockwell Automation for being recognized as one of the World’s Most Ethical Companies.”

Rockwell Automation also announced that its 2017 Corporate Responsibility Report is available. The Report details our approach to corporate responsibility and sustainability, including our culture of integrity and ethical business practices. We are excited to share our approach to delivering sustainable customers, a sustainable company, and a sustainable community.
