World’s most ethical companies

Empresas como Ford, Hasbro, L'Oréal, LinkedIn, Marriott, Marks & Spencer, Mastercard, Microsoft, PepsiCo, Starbucks, Visa e  Volvo são algumas das que integram a lista "World's Most Ethical Companies" deste ano, elaborada pela consultoria de gestão Ethisphere Institute.

As companhias foram convidadas a completar uma auto-avaliação e, em seguida, foram avaliadas com um EQ - "quociente ético" - baseado em cinco critérios: programa de ética e conformidade, cidadania corporativa e responsabilidade, cultura de ética, inovação e reputação.

A lista final - que não é um ranking - é formada por 124 empresas (veja abaixo) e traz 98 companhias norte-americanas.

Nenhuma brasileira entrou na lista deste ano. Em 2014, Banco do Brasil e Natura estavam entre as "World's most ethical companies", leia aqui.
