Methodology & Scoring
The World's Most Ethical Company
assessment is based upon the Ethisphere Institute's Ethics Quotient™ (EQ)
framework developed over years of research and vetted and refined by the expert
advice from Ethisphere's World's Most Ethical Company Methodology Advisory
Panel. The EQ offers a quantitative way to assess a company's performance in an
objective, consistent and standardized way. 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%), corporate citizenship and responsibility (20%), culture of ethics (20%), governance (15%) and leadership, innovation and reputation (10%) and provided to all companies who participate in the process.
