EcoVadis assesses criteria across four themes: labour & human rights, ethics, environment and sustainable procurement with many businesses across the world now taking into consideration the ratings of potential clients, suppliers, and partners.

This year, WBD improved its score in the labour and human rights category and overall, placing the firm in the top three per cent of all companies reporting globally.
