| Caterpillar recognized for strong focus on sustainability For the sixth consecutive year, Caterpillar Inc. has been selected as a member of the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index (DJSI World). DJSI uses a best-in-class approach designed to identify best practices across the economic, social and environmental dimensions of corporate sustainability. For each industry, the DJSI creates specific questions to reflect unique sustainability challenges. Each of the Dow's 2,500 companies was invited to take part in the comprehensive assessment, and only 318 companies met the standards for listing on the DJSI World. Launched in 1999, the DJSI World is the first global index to track with an external auditor the financial performance of the leading sustainability-driven companies worldwide. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
