STM among best corporate citizens in Canada

News

Corporate Knights, a magazine focused on sustainability, has included again this year the STM in a select group of Canadian enterprises that stand out thanks to their exemplary responsible practices. In a ranking released today, the STM is ranked twelfth among the Best 50 Corporate Citizens in Canada. The STM is the only passenger transportation enterprise to make the list.

Eligibility criteria

To establish its Best 50 Corporate Citizens in Canada ranking, Corporate Knights analysed the sustainability and social responsibility performance of 271 Canadian corporations with revenues over $1 billion.

All were evaluated and compared to international industry peers on a set of up to 24 environmental, social and governance indicators, using publicly available information. The best 50 were then retained. The STM scored first among international corporations of the passenger transportation sector.

The STM stands out for its clean revenues, thanks to the proportion of trips made on its network using electricity, notably with the metro or the electric and hybrid buses. The STM also scores high under good governance, especially in terms of the presence of women on its Management Committee and Board of Directors.
