Progressive Launches Social Responsibility Website
Car insurance group Progressive is now formally reporting on its social responsibility efforts with a new website called “Progressive Together,” accessible at progressive.com/socialresponsibility.Progressive sees social responsibility as part of doing business in keeping with its Core Values, especially the Golden Rule — treating others as they would like to be treated.
This is the first time the company has pulled together all of its social responsibility activities into one place, but Progressive has been committed to acting in socially responsible ways since its founding in 1937.
Site visitors can learn about:
- Achievements and goals around efforts to reduce, reuse, and recycle to secure a sustainable future
- Information on Progressive business practices aimed at driving positive changes in car insurance
- Charitable activities and contributions of Progressive employees, agents, and other partners
- Progressive’s Global Reporting Initiative scorecard and Carbon Disclosure Project report
- Information and resources on how site visitors can personally make a difference.
Progressive Social Responsibility Manager Wanda Shippy commented, “At Progressive, being socially responsible isn’t new. What’s new is that we’re now formally reporting on our social responsibility efforts. People are becoming more interested in what companies are doing in terms of the environment and the impact companies have in their communities. We launched 'Progressive Together' to make it easy for people to get a clear picture of what we’re doing and how we work with others to make a difference.”
Shipppy concluded, “We call our social responsibility site ‘Progressive Together’ because it reflects our commitment to work with our communities, business partners, and customers to create a better future together. We want the site to be a place where people can see what we’re doing and also see ways they can get involved if they choose.”
The Progressive Group of Insurance Companies, in business since 1937, is one of the country’s largest auto insurance groups, the largest seller of motorcycle policies, and a market leader in commercial auto insurance based on premiums written.
