MonDie Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 I have a few reasons for wanting to know: to take pride in hard work; to know the company's culture, attitudes of superiors and recruiters. Regarding sustainability I could only find articles published on news sites that may be politically biased and/or paid off. I would prefer government data.

How can you know that government data are not biased? Do you straight away release everything to the all government officers during being investigated.. ?
iNow Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 Not sure where you might find this. My immediate thoughts go to Glassdoor, but unsure they track the environmental variables you seek
MonDie Posted March 11, 2017 Author Posted March 11, 2017 It is far from comprehensive, but I just came across the Environmental Protection Agency's "Climate Leadership Awards". https://www.epa.gov/climateleadership/climate-leadership-awards New awards were given just this March. https://www.epa.gov/climateleadership/2017-climate-leadership-award-winners
iNow Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 Can't vouch for them, but there's this, too: http://sustainablebusinessawards.com/about/
MonDie Posted March 13, 2017 Author Posted March 13, 2017 I've come across one business describing itself as "faith-friendly", which seems to be an ill-defined term that I fear might be an excuse to dig into people's private lives. I'm thinking that most businesses probably aren't openly racist, anti-gay, anti-atheist, et cetera, but there are probably more organizations identifying with religion in some way because they prefer like-minded employees. Alas I still haven't come across any fast reference to determine how secular or religious an organization is. Can't vouch for them, but there's this, too: http://sustainablebusinessawards.com/about/ Why do you trust it? https://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/sustainablebusinessawards.com
iNow Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 Like I said, I can't vouch for them. I didn't know enough about them to trust or distrust them.
MonDie Posted March 14, 2017 Author Posted March 14, 2017 (edited) If I only knew of a news site that focuses on this topic, then I could search Google with the "site:" modifier to filter the search results by domain name. Goldman Sachs appears twice in the 2017 Climate Leadership Awards, even though they disproportionately donated to Republican campaigns in the 2012 election and their president, Gary Cohn, left the firm to join the Trump administration. http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/OTUS/google-marriott-ups-pick-sides-2012-election/story?id=16208812 "Goldman Sachs, Marriott International and The Home Depot have also disproportionately supported Republicans." https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/on-leadership/wp/2017/01/25/trump-adviser-gary-cohn-is-leaving-goldman-sachs-with-a-123-million-payout/?utm_term=.d9433e054bf9 Edited March 14, 2017 by MonDie
MonDie Posted March 15, 2017 Author Posted March 15, 2017 Some Patheos reading has me thinking I could gauge a retailer by its stock of controversial merchandise: controversial clothing, birth control, guns ... ???. Anyone who shops for these things may be able to help. Do any females notice, for example, that Target stocks birth control pills that Walmart won't? Sex toys and dirty magazines might be of interest as well, but as a control or else because of potential gender bias.
