Alcoa recognized for Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Performance

Alcoa Corporation, a global leader in bauxite, alumina, and aluminium, has been recognized as the top aluminium industry performer in The Sustainability Yearbook 2020, a complete guide that provides in-depth analysis on environmental, social and governance criteria (ESG).

The Sustainability Yearbook, published by S&P Global, uses the SAM Corporate Sustainability Assessment, which also briefs other ESG-related assessments, including the Dow Jones Sustainability Indices (DJSI). In 2019, Alcoa was named the Aluminum Industry Leader in the DJSI.

Alcoa President and Chief Executive Officer Roy Harvey said: "Our strong reputation as a sustainable and responsible operator in the mining and metals industry is a key differentiator in our future success and aligns with our strategic priority to advance sustainably.”

He also added, "We are proud of this most recent ranking, which reflects the day-to-day work our employees do across the globe following our Company’s values to act with integrity, operate with excellence and care for people."

Alcoa is the sole aluminium industry participant awarded a gold classification in the publication’s rating system. Alcoa is also recognized as the overall industry mover. To be listed, companies must be within the top 15% of their industry and must achieve a score within 30% of their industry’s top-performing company. The Sustainability Yearbook has been published annually since 2004, and this year’s edition ranked more than 4,700 companies across 61 industries.

In addition to this latest recognition, Fortune Magazine recently ranked Alcoa as one of the "World’s Most Admired Companies," a listing that is based on a survey of more than 3,500 executives, analysts, and directors. Alcoa ranked in the top 100 in the magazine’s listing, which highlighted several key attributes, including innovation, social responsibility, people management and quality of management. The ranking follows one in December of 2019 from Newsweek, which named Alcoa as one of the "Most Responsible Companies" in its inaugural evaluation of 2,000 publicly traded companies.

Also, for the second consecutive year, Alcoa has been included in Bloomberg’s Gender-Equality Index for the Company’s efforts to attract, retain and advance qualified women in what has traditionally been a male-dominated industry. Alcoa is one of 325 companies included in the list, which spans 50 global industries headquartered across 42 countries and regions.
