Milliken is one of six World’s Most Ethical Companies honorees to make the list every year since the award was first created in 2007.
“At Milliken, we are committed to making a positive impact on people and the world around us,” said Milliken President and CEO Halsey Cook. “This honor affirms that how we conduct business matters just as much as what we accomplish, and we’re proud to be recognized again this year.”
Guided by its core values and the ever-changing landscape of the communities it serves, Milliken undertook an extensive project in 2023 to better understand the needs and desires of its associate base. The company then formalized its commitment to Team Milliken with the launch of its Associate Promise, a commitment to building a better future by fostering a culture rooted in trust, intentional inclusion and diversity, and empowerment. Milliken’s Associate Promise echoes elements of Milliken’s overarching ethics and compliance program that strives to purposefully impact the world through a commitment to excellence and continuous improvement.
“By acting with integrity and transparency, we continue our commitment to maintaining our ethical enterprise,” shared Kasel Knight, SVP and General Counsel and head of sustainability at Milliken. “From the way we treat our associates to the way we engage in the market, we act for humankind in everything we do.”
The World’s Most Ethical Companies assessment is grounded in Ethisphere’s proprietary Ethics Quotient®, an extensive questionnaire that requires companies to provide more than 240 proof points on their culture of ethics, environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices, ethics and compliance program, diversity, equity and inclusion, and initiatives that support a strong value chain. In 2024, 136 honorees were recognized, spanning 20 countries and 44 industries.
“Year after year, we see Milliken exhibit a best-in-class culture of ethics and integrity,” added Erica Salmon Byrne, Ethisphere’s chief strategy officer and executive chair. “Not only is this team demonstrating a strong ethical mindset, Milliken is committed to continually improving their ethics and compliance practices. We congratulate Milliken on its 18th year as one of the World’s Most Ethical Companies.”
