Corporate Social Responsibility Report 2018

Our new Global Charitable Contributions and Sponsorships Policy outlines our approach to being a good corporate citizen. We never offer or accept gifts, payments or hospitality to encourage or reward a decision. The policy is a key part of our anti-bribery and corruption program and supports our global giving in a responsible manner.

Also in 2018, we announced a new Volunteer Time Policy, which allows employees to use up to two additional days of paid time off each year to volunteer for accredited charitable organizations. The policy creates new opportunities for employees to volunteer, empowering our people to engage in service that is meaningful to them. The policy currently applies to U.S. employees who work at least 20 hours per work and have been employed with our company for at least six months.

“Giving our time, talent and resources to enhance communities and the lives of those less fortunate is at the heart of our culture. We’re proud to offer the Volunteer Time Policy to our employees as a way of enhancing our firm’s efforts in making a positive impact on the world around us, one community at a time.” Michelle Hay Chief Human Resources Officer
