TNT Recognized As Green

Though its corporate color scheme is orange, TNT has been recognized as a “green” company.

TNT confirmed its leadership in the Dow Jones Sustainability Indexes (DJSI) for the industrial transportation sector and the super sector ‘industrial goods and services.’ In addition, TNT reached the highest score of all companies included in the DJSI for the second year in a row.

These are the conclusions of a report published in Zurich by Sustainable Asset Management AG. (SAM), which assessed the sustainability reporting and performance of over 1,100 companies. TNT reached the overall score of 92% out of a possible 100%. In addition, TNT got the highest score in each of the three dimensions—Economic, Environmental, and Social—that make up the index.
TNT achieved the best scores (100%) in the following areas: customer relationship management, fuel efficiency, codes of conduct/compliance, and risk and crisis management.

Peter Bakker, CEO of TNT, commented: “We are delighted to confirm our leadership position in the Dow Jones Sustainability Indexes. The consistency of our results demonstrates TNT’s commitment to economic, environmental, and social performance. I want to thank all TNT employees for this outstanding achievement.”
