Corporate Social Responsibility

As part of our commitment to society, our people and the environment, we assess and report on our ESG (environment, social and governance) performance through EcoVadis, the global standard for business sustainability ratings. The assessment of our business sustainability practices covers 21 sustainability criteria across four core themes: Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Ethics and Sustainable Procurement. In our latest rating, which was completed in 2022, we earned a Silver EcoVadis Medal and scored a 56/100, which places cbsi in the top 25% globally. We are committed to continuous improvement in our performance and to making a bigger impact in our community and across the world.

Environment and Climate

cbsi is committed to protecting and maintaining the quality of the environment, creating environmental awareness and reducing our impact on the surrounding environment.

Our Climate Target:
cbsi commits to offset 50% of scope 1 and 2 location-based GHG emissions by the end of 2024 from the 2022 base-year level.

Creating a more sustainable future, while furthering engagement in our local community is our top priority. To that end, we are dedicated to taking a meaningful approach to achieving our climate target. We have invested in carbon offsets through the Fulton County Mud Road Landfill Gas Capture initiative located in Johnstown, New York, home to Elizabeth Cady Stanton, an activist and leader for the women’s right movement. Our intent is not only to invest in emission reduction activities locally in our community but to also honor the legacy of a local trailblazer whose lifelong dedication and advocacy for women’s rights helped pave the way for women’s equality.

According to the current EPA carbon equivalencies guidance, our investment has offset the equivalent carbon as 21 acres of US forests.
