By tight collaboration between our facility managers and employee-volunteer sustainability champions, the Network communicates uniform environmental messaging, solicits employee feedback, and promotes conservation.

Our supply chain contracts require vendors to describe their environmental policies and efforts, which we evaluate to verify if their sustainability objectives and operations correspond with those of Northern Trust. The upstream procurement policy of a vendor helps us ensure our service and product providers' environmental performance.
