MARLBOROUGH, Mass., Aug. 02, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Atlas Travel & Technology Group (ATTG) has earned its designation as a Certified B Corporation (“B Corp”), an accreditation that measures overall social and environmental performance of an impact company by redefining success through intentional positive impacts on stakeholders, including customers, employees, local and global communities, and the environment.
To become a B Corporation, organizations must pass the “B Assessment,” regarding how the company adheres to the highest standards of verified performance, accountability, and transparency for factors such as social and environmental responsibility, benefits of employees, charitable giving and supply chain practices. The assessment looks closely at how the company’s operations and business model support a more sustainable future.
“When I first learned what a B Corp certification stood for, I knew it was something we, as an organization, wanted to achieve,” says Elaine Osgood, ATTG’s Executive Director. “The rigorous certification process made us a better company, highlighting our superlatives and highlighting some areas that needed more attention. Our priority has always been to do the right thing for our employees, the community and the environment, knowing that a positive outcome I am proud to be among so many like-minded organizations and look forward to engaging with the B Corp community in a meaningful way.”
Proud to be the first and currently only travel management company in the United States with this prestigious accreditation, ATTG is committed to the principles of human rights, environmental stewardship, employee health and safety, and a high standard of corporate ethics, joining the ranks of over 2,500 other B Corps in 160 industries worldwide.
On August 14-17, ATTG will be discussing their B Corp Certification at the Business Travel Association Global Convention in San Diego, CA, showcasing their corporate social responsibility initiatives and company advancements.
