(MENAFN - 3BL) December 10, 2024 /3BL/ - Otis Worldwide Corporation (NYSE: OTIS) earned a gold rating this year from EcoVadis, a global sustainability rating platform. This is the third straight assessment in which Otis obtained the gold rating - ranking in the top 5% of the more than 130,000 companies assessed by EcoVadis.

"This EcoVadis gold rating represents our work to advance our sustainability programs in alignment with our business objectives," said Caroline Coursant, Otis Vice President of ESG."Many of our customers consider this a key metric as they make procurement decisions. Receiving a gold rating for the third year in a row demonstrates that we continue to pursue and execute on sustainable strategies that drive value for key stakeholders, including our colleagues, customers, partners and shareholders."

The EcoVadis rating system uses 21 criteria to measure companies' efforts across four areas of corporate social responsibility and sustainability: Environment, Labor and Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement. As more companies look to existing and potential suppliers' sustainability programs to achieve their Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) goals, many use EcoVadis to provide a reliable assessment for their procurement practices. A strong EcoVadis score demonstrates a company's strong sustainability performance and commitments and comprehensive management systems.

ESG is integral to setting Otis' long-term vision in motion and is embedded in the company's long-term business strategy. We are intentional in our approach identifying opportunities to manage our impact on the world while aligning our products and services with our stakeholders' expectations and aspirations.
