WATSONVILLE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Granite (NYSE:GVA) has been listed by Newsweek as one of America’s Most Responsible Companies in 2025. Newsweek and Statista Inc., the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider, present this award to recognize companies for their commitment to doing the right thing for people, the planet, and their communities.
This list highlights companies that excel in corporate responsibility, sustainability, and ethical practices. The initial analysis focused on the top 2,000 public companies by revenue, banks and insurance companies with total assets exceeding $50 billion. Being named as one of America's Most Responsible Companies reflects Granite’s commitment to making a positive impact on its communities and the environment. The awards list was announced on December 4th, 2024.
The America’s Most Responsible Companies 2025 ranking assesses the three pillars of ESG: Environment, Social, and Corporate Governance. The ranking is based on two key parameters:
- KPI Research: Over 30 Performance Indicators have been researched for the top 2,000 public companies (by revenue; with their headquarters in the USA).
- Survey: 26,000 US residents were surveyed to evaluate the companies’ CSR reputation. Respondents were asked to select companies familiar to them and then to evaluate the company’s CSR performance in general and in the three subdimensions: social, environmental, and governance.
"We are honored to receive this recognition because it is a testament to our commitment to sustainability and responsible business practices,” said Kyle Larkin, Granite President and Chief Executive Officer. "We recognize the importance of engaging with our stakeholders, driving positive change in our industry, and developing strategic partnerships to build a more resilient future."
