Stantec named one of Canada’s Best 50 Corporate Citizens of 2019

Stantec has been named one of Canada’s Best 50 Corporate Citizens for the seventh time by Corporate Knights. Now in its 18th year, the annual ranking acknowledges companies that implement responsible business practices based on environmental, social and governance indicators.

The rankings were announced recently at the Corporate Knights Annual Best 50 Gala held at Globe and Mail Centre in Toronto. For 2019, Stantec ranks 12 overall, up from 19 in 2018.

“Stantec’s sustainability commitments are integrated into how we operate our business, the services we offer, and our Company values,” says Carrie Sabin, Stantec’s sustainability director. “Managing our business with a triple-bottom-line focus benefits our people, clients, investors, and planets. We are very pleased to be recognized for our efforts.“

The leading corporate ranking of Canadian corporate citizenship, Corporate Knights ranks companies’ relative carbon and resource impacts, as well as employee, safety, diversity, innovation, financial management, “clean” revenue, and supplier performance. In 2019, 242 Canadian companies with revenues over $1 billion were ranked relative to their industry peers and using publicly available information.
