Cummins Inc bags several ESG recognitions in 2023
Cummins Inc. has received a number of sustainability-related awards and recognitions for 2023, including high marks from two major ESG rankings.

The global leader in power technology was ranked 35th in Newsweek's fourth annual list of America's Most Responsible Companies, and first in the Automotive and Components industry. Cummins received the highest marks for its environmental work, followed by its corporate governance score and social score.

The 2023 ranking of 500 of the country's largest companies is based on more than 30 key ESG performance indicators and a comprehensive survey of US residents regarding each company's corporate social responsibility reputation. Cummins' overall ranking remained unchanged since 2022.

Meanwhile, after falling off the list in 2022, the company has returned to JUST Capital's Just 100 list of America's Most Just Companies for 2023. Cummins was ranked 67th among America's largest publicly traded companies, and first among 23 companies in the Commercial Vehicles and Machinery category.

Individually, the company ranked highest for how it invests in employees and how it minimizes its environmental impact. The ranking polls Americans to determine what matters most to them in business behavior and then evaluates companies based on those findings using publicly available data. Cummins ranked No. 99 in the 2021 Just 100.

Cummins’ Recognitions
Cummins also received several other recognitions:
  • For the way it works with women-owned businesses, the company was named one of 66 America's Top Corporations for Women's Business Enterprises for 2023. The Women's Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC) recognizes companies that have demonstrated a consistent commitment to including women-owned businesses in their supply chains.
  • Cummins has also been named a 2023 Military Friendly Employer, receiving the bronze designation for its success in providing long-term and meaningful benefits to the military community.
