Newsweek Magazine recognizes Lincoln’s
leadership in philanthropy, environmental sustainability and
overall good corporate citizenship
Lincoln Financial Group (NYSE: LNC) today announced it has been
named one of America’s Most Responsible Companies 2024 by Newsweek
Magazine. The ranking focuses on a holistic view of corporate
responsibility that considers all three pillars of Environment,
Social and Governance (ESG).
Newsweek, in partnership with research organization Statista,
Inc., selected the honorees based on more than 30 publicly
available key performance indicators (KPIs) derived from Corporate
Social Responsibility (CSR) and sustainability reports.
Additionally, an independent survey asked 17,000 U.S. citizens to
select companies familiar to them and to evaluate those companies
CSR performance in general and in three subdimensions: social,
environmental and governance. The final list recognizes the top 600
most responsible companies in the United States, spanning 14
industries.
“At Lincoln, we continuously explore innovative ways of
thinking, tapping into diverse backgrounds and new ideas, to help
enhance our CSR and ESG efforts to generate a real impact,” said
Allison Green Johnson, Chief Diversity Officer and President,
Lincoln Financial Foundation. “This award is a testament to the
strong strategy we have in place and the impact we are making in
our workplace, marketplace and communities.”
Lincoln Financial has continued to enhance its focus on
improving peoples’ lives in the communities it serves and
protecting the environment through the work of the Lincoln
Financial Foundation. In 2023, Lincoln Financial made charitable
contributions exceeding $9.5 million, with approximately 300
partners reaching more than 1.5 million people. In addition,
Lincoln employees continued to coordinate local giving in the
company’s main locations through its Employee Activities
Committees.
Lincoln also continues to make progress on reducing energy use
and greenhouse gas emissions, achieving the company’s targets on
Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, and made significant progress on
expanding Scope 3 emissions reporting and calculations on
categories with readily available emissions data. In 2022, Lincoln
helped reduce paper purchase by 21%, adopting a digital-first model
by encouraging business lines to use digital versions of new
marketing materials and event agendas to limit printing.
“Lincoln’s commitment to making a positive impact for people and
the planet is more compelling than ever,” said Amber Williams,
Chief Sustainability Officer, Lincoln Financial Group. “Every day,
we are moving closer to this commitment by integrating our ESG
performance in everything we do and holding ourselves accountable
to being more than just a business.”
In addition to America’s Most Responsible Companies, Lincoln has
also been named to Newsweek’s list of Most Trustworthy Companies
2024 for the second year in a row. Lincoln has also been included
on major sustainability indices, including the prestigious Dow
Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI) North America.
