Corporate Citizenship Canada
We use our understanding of technology and its impact to help create more-inclusive societies that offer more opportunities to more people.
Our core values, including our commitment to doing business ethically, legally and with integrity, are the foundation of our company’s culture.
Responsibility to advance corporate citizenship at Accenture starts at the top, with our Board, our Executive Chairman and our CEO, and cascades through our business, including use of performance objectives relating to corporate citizenship.

As climate change increasingly affects living and working conditions around the world, this is the time to act. We are committed to playing a leading role in the transition to a low-carbon economy through our actions.
In 2019, we committed to procuring 100% renewable energy across our global facilities by 2023. So far, we are at 26%.
Our target aims to reduce absolute greenhouse gas emissions by 11% against our 2016 baseline by 2025. To date, we have cut absolute emissions by 7%.
Accenture has the purchasing power and multi-billion-dollar supply chain to drive positive change on a global scale. Our ambition is to create more-sustainable supply chains through a mindset of responsible buying both inside and outside our company, while generating long-term value for our clients, suppliers and communities.
To go beyond transactional procurement, we have developed Procurement Plus, which is our overarching philosophy about working with our suppliers and wider ecosystem to advance key priorities, including environmental sustainability, human rights, inclusion, diversity and social innovation.
Traditional places of work are evolving as we speak. Virtual work practices are a powerful tool to protect employees and stay supportive to beneficiaries. Connecting safely with partners, volunteers and donors is more vital than ever.
