Aflac, UPS among most ethical
Atlanta Business Chronicle
Aflac Inc. And United Parcel Service Inc., both based in Georgia, are among the most ethical companies in the world, according to Ethisphere magazine.
The annual “most-ethical” designation recognizes companies that demonstrated a commitment to ethical leadership, compliance practices and corporate social responsibility in 2009, the magazine said. This is the fourth year Ethisphere, which is a think tank dedicated to the creation, advancement and sharing of best practices in business ethics, corporate social responsibility, anticorruption and sustainability, has published the “World’s Most Ethical” rankings that appear in the magazine's first-quarter issue.
“Aflac's promotion of a sound ethical environment shines within its industry and shows a clear understanding that operating under the highest standards for business behavior goes beyond goodwill and lip service, and is intimately linked to performance and profitability," said Alex Brigham, executive director of the Ethisphere Institute, in a statement.
