The EcoVadis assessment process measures the quality of a company's sustainability management system through three pillars: policies, actions and results. Companies are scored on 21 sustainability criteria that fall under the themes of environment, ethics, labor and human rights, and sustainable procurement. EcoVadis medals (bronze, silver, gold and platinum) are awarded to the top 35 percent of companies assessed.
