Geotab Receives EcoVadis Bronze Sustainability Rating

Geotab Inc. announced it has been awarded a bronze medal from EcoVadis, in recognition of its positive environmental and social change across company operations.

The rating by EcoVadis reinforces Geotab’s commitment to sustainability, according to the company's news release,

A signatory of The Climate Pledge, Geotab recently announced it lowered its carbon emissions in its first Greenhouse Gas Emissions Report, had its carbon emission reduction targets validated and approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), and won a Google Cloud Customer award for Sustainability, following on its 2021 Sustainability Report.

Geotab’s strengths in environmental performance as noted on the EcoVadis scorecard include:

• Reporting on scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions.
• Environmental policies on waste, energy consumption, and greenhouse gas.
• Measures to reuse or recycle waste.
• Purchase of renewable energy.
• Employee awareness training on waste reduction.
• Commitments to the Science Based Targets initiative and We Mean Business Coalition.

The scorecard also recognized Geotab’s policies on sustainable procurement and good performance on labor and human rights and ethics. 

“At Geotab, we provide data insights to help companies accelerate their sustainability journey, and we are also walking the walk ourselves. This EcoVadis bronze rating shows that Geotab is working to improve the environmental, social, and ethical impact of our operations,” said Chuck Van Kempen, associate VP, corporate sustainability at Geotab. “Data insights are key to making critical decisions to advance sustainability goals. Without data intelligence, it’s difficult to understand the path forward, including the actions that will have the biggest impact on organizations and society.”

The EcoVadis methodology scores companies on 21 sustainability criteria across four themes: Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement. 

Similarly, Geotab said it provides a full suite of sustainable fleet solutions to enable companies to assess and manage the environmental impact of their operations at each stage of their emissions reduction journey, such as the EV Suitability Assessment, Green Fleet Dashboard, fuel usage and idling reports, routing optimization, Geotab Keyless, and Fleet Electrification Knowledge Center.
