SICK<\/a> achieved 86 out of 100 points in the EcoVadis sustainability rating and, with the Platinum award, is among the top 1 percent of all evaluated companies worldwide. Each year, a total of 21 sustainability criteria are assessed in four core areas: Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement. With an improvement of 36 percent, SICK significantly increases its score compared to the previous year, moving from Silver to Platinum. The categories \u201cEnvironment\u201d and \u201cLabor & Human Rights\u201d scored particularly well with 90 out of 100 possible points. SICK also improved to 80 points in the categories \u201cEthics\u201d and \u201cSustainable Procurement\u201d.
