Alight, Inc. (NYSE: ALIT), A leading benefits administration provider of health, wealth, leave and point solutions, has been recognized by Newsweek as one of America’s Most Responsible Companies 2026. The list honors companies that stand out for contributions across several areas of corporate responsibility.

“This recognition reflects Alight’s commitment to promoting responsible business practices,” said Christine Terborg, Vice President, Corporate Sustainability and Impact at Alight. “Our initiatives across the organization highlight our dedication to Alight’s pillars of the Corporate Sustainability and Impact (CS&I) strategy: people, progress and principles.”   

Alight’s activities are rooted in people by supporting colleague wellbeing through a culture of care, progress through sustainable experiences of employee and participant wellbeing and principles through strong governance and environmental commitments. Key accomplishments across Alight’s three CS&I pillars include:

  • People: A global mentorship program, inclusive hiring practices, and Recruiting Toolkit and Equal Pay Statements that provide pay transparency and parity for Alight’s employees across all markets. 
  • Progress: AI-driven innovation across Alight’s products and solutions to help employers better engage their people across their benefits and realize business outcomes.
  • Principles: Migration from physical data centers to the cloud and formalization of a commitment to reducing absolute scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions, as recognized by approval from the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) Net‑Zero Standard. Alight also launched “Alight for the Planet,” a colleague-led community (CLC) that provides resources and education for employees looking to give back and promote a more sustainable future.

Additionally, Alight publishes an annual Global Impact Report that provides a comprehensive overview of the company’s corporate sustainability and impact activities and progress.

Inclusion in Newsweek's America’s Most Responsible Companies 2026 is based on the quantitative data from more than 30 Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) across key areas of sustainability, including corporate social responsibility (CSR) reputation, derived from an extensive survey conducted among U.S. residents.
