Hunt Valley, Maryland (1 December 2022)—EA Engineering, Science, and Technology, Inc., PBC (EA), a leading provider of interdisciplinary environmental services, issued its Public Benefit Corporation (PBC) Statement and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Report for calendar year 2021. The document is available for review and download from the firm’s website.
Emerging from the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the company showed its resilience, operating in a hybrid work environment while continuing to embark on its digital transformation strategy. As an industry leader in annual reporting transparency, EA enhanced its carbon footprint reporting to account for full quantification of Scope 3 value chain-related emissions in accordance with World Resources Institute (WRI) protocols—to include estimated emissions associated with our subcontractors and vendors. We initiated voluntary reassessment of our company-wide CSR efforts, engaging with EcoVadis, a leading independent global provider of business sustainability ratings in a comprehensive program reassessment. This reassessment affirmed EA’s “Gold” rating, placing us solidly in the top 5% globally of the more than 100,000 companies EcoVadis has assessed across more than 200 industries in 174+ countries. The company also focused on further education and awareness of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and enhancing workforce belonging by formally launching internal teams building off commitments we made in 2020 as a signatory of the CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion pledge. DEI efforts focused on training, surveys, and development of our DEI statement, governance framework, and formal action plan for 2022.
“With our milestone 50th anniversary just 1 year away, we remain focused on our employee-owners and PBC commitments,” said Brian Lesinski, Senior Vice President and Director, CSR.
“EA will continue building recognition as a world-class environmental consulting and engineering firm, partnering with our clients to help them understand their impacts, and developing sustainable solutions that improve the quality of the environment in which we live, one project at a time®.”
