Scality jumps to the top 25% of 100,000 global companies for improved sustainability efforts
EcoVadis, the leader in business sustainability rankings, awards Scality a Silver medal for business sustainability in Labor & Human Rights, Environment, Ethics and Procurement pillars.
SAN FRANCISCO – Sept. 12, 2023 – Scality, a global leader in reliable, secure and sustainable storage software, announced that it has achieved a Silver rating from EcoVadis, the world’s largest and most trusted provider of business sustainability ratings. EcoVadis has become the global standard by rating more than 100,000 companies globally.
The strength of the Ecovadis ratings is that they take all dimensions of sustainability into account: Environment, Labor and Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement. Scality has worked to advance improvements in all these dimensions to achieve this year’s Silver ranking. This includes robust environmental programs, premier benefits for employees regardless of local laws (including fully funded health insurance for all and longer-term family leave for both parents), employee education programs to advance ethics, and sustainable procurement practices when building and deploying Scality’s products around the world.

That’s what our logo was designed to convey. The challenge is to conduct the business in a way that simultaneously creates value for all stakeholders and ensures that resources are replenished as much as they are consumed,” said Jerome Lecat, CEO of Scality.
“The EcoVadis Silver rating is a significant milestone for a midsize company like Scality. We are proud to stand with the top organizations that prioritize ESG factors [Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance] in business operations. And we are far from done! Building a sustainable business model for Scality will remain a top priority as we strive for an EcoVadis Gold-level ranking over the next few years. ” EcoVadis’ business sustainability ratings are based on international sustainability standards such as the Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact, the International Labour Organization (ILC) Conventions, the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards and ISO 26000 standards.
