Launched in 1999, the DJSI recognizes the leading companies in each industry sector for responsible economic, environmental, and social performance. To be the market leader requires a sustainable approach to everything we do. We have chosen to focus our efforts on five of the UN Sustainable Development Goals: decent work and economic growth (SDG 8), reduced inequalities (SDG 10), gender equality (SDG 5), and quality education (SDG 4). In addition, with regard to climate action (SDG 13), we have committed to the Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi) Business Ambition for the 1.5ºC pledge, and to setting science-based targets with the ambition of Net Zero by 2050.
As a business built for and around people, our continued recognition by the DJSI reflects our strong focus on being a purpose-led organization that puts sustainability at the core of everything we do. We firmly believe that by having equity and societal impact at the center of our strategy, we can accelerate the impact that Randstad can have on the working lives of people around the world. I am very proud of this recognition and thank all our employees for doing their part to make us a more sustainable organization.
