SMP is one of a few group of companies in the automotive components sector on this prestigious list. Companies are recognized for continued effort and results within all aspects of Sustainability.
Since 2020, Newsweek has partnered with Statista to rank and compile the list of America’s Most Responsible Companies.
They base their list off of two metrics. First, over 30 key performance indicators (KPIs) were researched for the top 2,000 US public companies by revenue. The second is a public survey, which is used to evaluate the companies’ corporate social responsibility (CSR) reputation. About 26,000 U.S. residents were surveyed, during which respondents were asked to select companies they were familiar with and evaluate both their CSR performance in general and in the three sub-dimensions of environmental, social, and corporate governance. The ranking also considered an evaluation of company sustainability reports, financial reports, history of lawsuits, and 2024 top polluter indexes from the Political Economy Research Institute.
“Once again, we are honored to be recognized on Newsweek’s list of America’s Most Responsible Companies,” said Eric Sills, Chairman and CEO of SMP. “At SMP, we are dedicated to being a responsible corporate citizen, with steadfast commitment to our employees, distribution partners, and the communities in which we operate.
