Xerox Recognized By Range Of Global Organizations In 2012

It’s long been a fact that, at Xerox (NYSE: XRX), much of the work done by its employees and for its customers is driven in part to make the world a better place.

In fact, the company’s CEO, in a recent interview said, “Frankly those companies that dismiss citizenship as a necessary evil don’t get my time, attention or business – unless they’re looking to benchmark us as an example of decades-long, values-based leadership.”

Ursula Burns’ remarks were underscored throughout 2012 as Xerox received a long list of accolades and awards highlighting the company’s success. This recognition, including rankings in the FTSE4Good Index Series and Fortune magazine’s ‘Most Admired’ list, speak to the company’s commitments in the areas of sustainability, innovation, diversity, and ethics.
