Volkswagen's New Sustainability Rating Helps The World

Ensuring Sustainability Standards
On July 1, 2019, Volkswagen introduced a new sustainability rating for its supply chain. While the company itself is committed to sustainability, it is now taking sustainability a step further by ensuring that its suppliers meet certain sustainability requirements too. The new sustainability rating for suppliers targets risks involving environmental protection, human rights, and corruption. Supplier compliance will be checked by a third party to ensure standards for sustainability are met.
