Fair Money & Economic Opportunity

The provided articles, including ABM's proxy statement and ESG reports, do not contain specific, concrete data points relevant to the KPIs for 'Fair Money & Economic Opportunity'. ABM Industries is described as a facility solutions provider, not a financial institution that lends, insures, moves, or stores money. Therefore, the KPIs, which are designed to assess financial institutions' impact on economic opportunity and fair money practices, are not applicable to ABM's core business operations as evidenced. While supplier diversity spend is mentioned, it does not align with the 'inclusion_initiatives' KPI, which specifically refers to a 'loan/insurance book'. ABM's supplier diversity spend increased more than 145% in the five years following the inception of the program in 2016.

Approximately 20% of ABM’s overall supplier spend was with minority-owned businesses.

Fair Pay & Worker Respect

ABM Industries accumulated 12 substantiated labor-law or human-rights violations in the past three years (2023-2025).

These incidents included violations related to wage and hour, employment discrimination, workplace safety and health, Family and Medical Leave Act, and benefit plan administration. Since 2000, the company has incurred over $277 million in wage and hour violation penalties and more than $12 million in employment discrimination penalties. In the 2024 fiscal year, the CEO-to-median employee pay ratio was 219:1, with the CEO's total compensation at $8,686,980 and the median employee's compensation at $39,581. Approximately 44% of the company's team members in the US are represented by collective bargaining agreements. The company reported a Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR) of 2.73. A 2024 employee survey indicated a 70% favorability rating for worker engagement.

Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing

No specific quantitative data was found in the provided articles for any of the Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing KPIs, including the percentage of fair-trade certified spend, supplier audit frequency, number of forced or child labor incidents, supply chain traceability coverage, remediation speed for violations, percentage of contracts with ethical clauses, share of spend on high-risk materials, or supplier diversity spend. While ABM mentions having a Supplier Code of Conduct

and conducting supplier assessments, no specific metrics are provided to score these KPIs.

Honest & Fair Business

No specific, concrete data points were found in the provided article to assess ABM against the defined KPIs for the 'Honest & Fair Business' ethical value. Information regarding regulatory fines within the past three years, transparency index scores, details on whistleblower policy strength, financial restatements, audit coverage, ESG controversy scores, complaint resolution times, board conflict-free percentages, anti-corruption policy enforcement, or third-party verification of ethical claims was not available or sufficiently detailed to meet the rubric's quantitative thresholds. While the article mentions 'Compliance Hotline' and 'Anti-corruption and anti-bribery policies,' it lacks the specific details on their strength, enforcement, or effectiveness required by the rubric's tiers. Similarly, 'Corruption allegations: None as of 2021'

is outside the 'past three years' timeframe relative to the article's date.

Kind to Animals

ABM Industries is a facility solutions provider, and its core business model does not involve activities typically associated with animal welfare concerns. The company does not manufacture products requiring cruelty-free certification, conduct animal testing, engage in animal husbandry or agriculture, or source animal-derived ingredients, eggs, meat, or dairy. Its innovation investments focus on general technology like AI and robotics for efficiency, not animal-free alternatives

. Supplier assessments cover general sustainability and human rights, but not animal welfare compliance . Public policy engagement is focused on carbon reduction targets, not animal welfare . Therefore, all animal welfare KPIs are not applicable to ABM's operations, aligning with the 'N/A' tier (0) in the rubric for each.
