Sustainability & Corporate Social Responsibility

As Cognizant continues to grow and expand into new regions, it becomes increasingly important to focus on our core values, namely: building a sustainable business and giving back to society.

Our internal performance and client satisfaction depend on how we:

  • Provide what’s best for people and the environment.
  • Conduct our business affairs, employing the highest standards of personal and corporate conduct.
  • Serve and satisfy our customers; thus shaping our ability to sustain our own future.

Cognizant’s sustainability program guides us in supporting our employees and the communities where they work, as well as in nurturing the next generation of professionals. Key initiatives include the Cognizant Foundation, Project Outreach for our global education endeavors, and Go Green for reducing pollution for our planet.

While sustainability is not new to our organization, we are pleased to announce our first formal sustainability report. It reflects a broader sustainability program, introduced in 2010, and an enhanced focus on its definition as set forth by the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the global leader in sustainability reporting.
