Corporate Responsibility

Recognition

In recent years, Sun has been honored around the world for corporate responsibility in a variety of areas — and we're grateful and encouraged by this recognition. Here are a few highlights.


100 Best Corporate Citizens

In 2008, Sun was again named one of the 100 Best Corporate Citizens by The CRO magazine (formerly Business Ethics magazine). This award acknowledges Sun's efforts in environmental responsibility, corporate governance and ethics, fairness toward employees, accountability to local communities, providing responsible products and services, and maintaining a healthy rate of return for investors. This is the third year in a row Sun has been recognized on the 100 Best Corporate Citizens list. The data used to create this list was collected by IW Financial, an independent investment research firm.

Best Place to Work for Commuters

For the third year in a row, Sun is among the top 10 Fortune 500 companies providing outstanding commuter benefits to a significant portion of its U.S. workforce to help decrease air pollution, traffic congestion, and dependence on fossil fuels. As part of our efforts, we provide a wide array of benefits that help employees pursue environmentally friendly and cost-effective commuting strategies.

Human Rights Campaign Corporate Equality Index

Sun scored a perfect 100% on the Human Rights Campaign's 2005, 2006, and 2007 Corporate Equality Index, which examines and evaluates companies' policies with respect to gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender employees. This recognition highlights our commitment to celebrating our employees' different points of view.
