Akamai Technologies, Inc. Named One Of Americas Most JUST Companies By Forbes And JUST Capital
Cambridge | October 14, 2020
Akamai Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: AKAM), the intelligent edge platform for securing and delivering digital experiences, was named one of America's Most JUST Companies for 2021, according to Forbes and JUST Capital, the leading corporate measurement platform for the stakeholder economy. The list of America's Most JUST Companies celebrates U.S. corporations like Akamai that outperform their peers in the Russell 1000 on priorities of the American people - including issues like paying a fair wage, upholding human rights across the supply chain, investing in worker training, acting ethically and with integrity, cultivating a diverse and inclusive workplace, protecting worker health and safety, providing good benefits and work-life balance, and more. By striving to meet the needs of all stakeholders, JUST 100 leaders demonstrate that profits and purpose go hand in hand.
We're honored to be recognized as one of America's Most JUST Companies -- our fourth year being included on the list, said Dr. Tom Leighton, co-founder and chief executive officer, Akamai Technologies. 2020 has brought to light the importance of meeting the needs of all stakeholders during trying times. While Integrity & Trust,' Inclusion' and Giving Back' have long been Akamai core values, we have adapted to meet the diverse and changing needs of our communities. This includes expanded efforts to attract more diversity to the technology industry; disaster relief and humanitarian aid globally; and the creation of programs specifically directed towards social equality.
The annual rankings evaluate the 1,000 largest public U.S. companies across 19 issues, identified through the most comprehensive surveys ever conducted on public attitudes toward responsible corporate behavior, engaging 4,469 American respondents in 2020 and over 110,000 total participants over the past seven years. This year's methodology was expanded to capture COVID-19 specific data points including customer payment deferrals, price cuts, services for vulnerable groups, and cash or in-kind donations to support community relief.
