The Hartford Named No. 1 Insurer On America’s Most ‘JUST’ Companies List for Third Year

The Hartford, for the third straight year, is the top-ranked insurance company on JUST Capital and CNBC’s list of America’s Most “JUST” Companies for 2022. Overall, The Hartford ranked No. 14 for its commitment to serving employees, customers, communities, the environment, and shareholders.

“We are proud to be honored again as the top-ranking insurer on America’s Most ‘JUST’ Companies list,” said Claire Burns, chief marketing and communications officer for The Hartford. “The most successful companies build environmental, social and governance principles into their strategy and lead with a clear and authentic purpose. The Hartford remains committed to reducing our environmental impact; fostering a diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace; supporting the neighborhoods where we live and work; and operating with the highest ethical standards.”

The America’s Most “JUST” Companies list ranks the top 100 publicly-traded, U.S. corporations that, according to JUST Capital and CNBC, cultivate a diverse and inclusive workplace, pay a fair and living wage, prioritize being accountable to all stakeholders, and protect worker health and safety, among other measures.

“We’ve entered a new era of accountability where employees, customers, and investors want to understand if companies are not just talking the talk, but walking the walk to drive change on the critical issues of our time,” said Martin Whittaker, CEO of JUST Capital. “The companies featured in the 2022 JUST 100 are demonstrating that purpose and profits can go hand in hand by delivering value to all stakeholders, including shareholders.”

For their annual Rankings, JUST collects and analyzes corporate data to evaluate the 1,000 largest public U.S. companies across 20 Issues as identified through the most comprehensive surveys conducted on public attitudes toward responsible corporate behavior, engaging more than 150,000 participants since 2015.

The Hartford’s sustainability strategy is built on measurable goals intended to create both long-term shareholder value and contribute positively to society at large, as outlined in the most recent Sustainability Highlight Report.

For the fourth consecutive year, The Hartford was included in the 2021 FTSE4Good IndexSeries, a Financial Times Stock Exchange (FTSE) series designed to measure the performance of companies demonstrating strong environmental, social and governance practices. In 2020, The Hartford was also recognized as a sustainability leader by being named to the 2020 Dow Jones Sustainability Indices for the ninth time. The Dow Jones Sustainability Indices are the standard for assessing a company’s environmental, social and governance performance. The indices are maintained collaboratively by S&P Dow Jones Indices and RobecoSAM.

About The Methodology

Since 2015, JUST Capital has surveyed more than 150,000 Americans on what Issues they believe U.S. companies should prioritize most when it comes to just business behavior. Those Issues become the foundation by which we track, analyze, and incentivize corporate behavior change, including the Rankings of America’s Most JUST Companies. JUST evaluated 954  companies across 5 stakeholders, 20 Issues, and 241 raw data points to produce the 2022 Rankings, including the JUST 100 and Industry Leader lists. This selection of companies draws from the Russell 1000 Index, which represents over 90% of the U.S. stock market value. The 2021 Annual Issues Survey was conducted in association with SSRS – an objective, non-partisan research institution that provides scientifically rigorous statistical surveys – among a general population sample of 3,000 U.S. adults.
