This designation recognizes the corporation for its commitment to leading ethical business standards and practices.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis year marks the 10th anniversary of Ethisphere and the World\u2019s Most Ethical Companies designation, and we are delighted to have been recognized for a 7th consecutive year,\u201d said Chuck Harrington, Parsons\u2019 Chairman and CEO. \u201cOur employees work tirelessly to make trust part of our corporate DNA, and this designation is a testament to their efforts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Parsons communicates its commitment to integrity to all levels of the company through its Code of Conduct and through various training methods, including live training, videos, easily accessed online documentation, as well as periodic ethics \u201cchallenges\u201d or quizzes to keep ethics in the forefront of its daily activities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCompanies rely on Ethisphere to continually raise and measure the standards of corporate behavior. Those that demonstrate leadership in areas like citizenship, integrity, and transparency create more value for their investors, communities, customers, and employees, thus solidifying a sustainable business advantage,\u201d explained Ethisphere\u2019s Chief Executive Officer, Timothy Erblich. \u201cCongratulations to everyone at Parsons for being recognized as a World\u2019s Most Ethical Company.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The World\u2019s Most Ethical Company assessment is based upon the Ethisphere Institute\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.worldsmostethicalcompanies.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ethics Quotient\u2122<\/a> (EQ) framework. This framework has been developed over years of research and vetted and refined by the expert advice from Ethisphere\u2019s World\u2019s Most Ethical Company <a href=\"https:\/\/worldsmostethicalcompanies.com\/advisory-panel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Methodology Advisory Panel<\/a>. The EQ offers a quantitative way to assess a company\u2019s performance in an objective, consistent, and standardized way. The information collected provides a comprehensive sampling of definitive criteria of core competencies, rather than all aspects of corporate governance, risk, sustainability, compliance, and ethics. Scores are generated in five key categories\u2014ethics and compliance program (35%); corporate citizenship and responsibility (20%); culture of ethics (20%); governance (15%); and leadership, innovation, and reputation (10%)\u2014and provided to all companies who participate in the process.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about the methodology for the World\u2019s Most Ethical Company
