AWARDS & TENDERS
Business Ethics Awards, given annually by Business Ethics magazine, honour companies that demonstrate leadership in ethics and social responsibility. The awards vary annually and have included Environmental Excellence, Human Rights Initiatives, Employee Ownership, and General Excellence in Ethics. Business Ethics also compiles an annual list of "The 100 Best Corporate Citizens," honouring companies that serve four stakeholder groups well: employees, customers, the community (which includes the environment), and stockholders. While Business Ethics has primarily honoured large companies over its 14 years of awards has celebrated primarily large companies, in 2003 its judges could find no large firms with truly cutting edge initiatives in ethics or social responsibility. So inIn an unexpected move, they named small firms for all three awards.

Corporate Conscience Awards, given annually by SOCIAL ACCOUNTABILITY INTERNATIONAL, are intended to "honour and bring to public attention companies that demonstrate a recognition, at the corporation's highest executive levels, of a responsibility to respect the rights and promote the well-being of all stakeholders, whether employees, consumers or the community; and to uphold environmental stewardship."

The Distinguished Corporate Citizenship Award is awarded by the CENTER FOR ETHICAL BUSINESS CULTURES to individuals who demonstrate sustained and imaginative leadership in corporate social responsibility. ACCA Awards around the world reward companies for excellence in environmental, social and sustainability reporting. The aim of ACCA Awards is to identify and reward innovative attempts to communicate corporate performance, although they do not comment on performance itself. ACCA is involved in reporting awards in more than 20 countries, including Europe, North America, Africa and the Asia Pacific region.
