Our Commitments to CSR
Committed to Our People, Our Communities and the Environment
Corporate Social Responsibility reflects our commitment to the communities where we live and work, the lives we touch and the environment around us.
ITW’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) strategy is built around four key elements: our people, our communities, our environment and our governance & ethics. As part of our vision to be one of the world’s best-performing, highest-quality and most-respected industrial companies, we will continue to support our communities and our employees to make a difference in the world around us.
