International Game Technology PLC announced the release of its 2021 Sustainability Report, which outlines the Company’s demonstrated environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance. IGT’s 15th annual Sustainability Report validates the Company’s commitment to operating as an industry-leading sustainable business and illustrates its latest achievements in generating value for its stakeholders.

“IGT understood the vast importance of sustainability 15 years ago when we issued the Company’s first Sustainability Report, and our 2021 Sustainability Report underscores the progress we have made since then,” said Vince Sadusky, IGT CEO.“We are developing our sustainability plans to further integrate sustainability across the entire value chain and improve the ESG impact throughout our daily operations. Highlighted in our 2021 Sustainability Report, this plan outlines strategic goals that will drive our ESG performance, now and in the future.”

The latest IGT Sustainability Report demonstrates the Company’s drive to create value for its stakeholders, increase its corporate citizenship and enhance reporting on its activities through four key sustainability priorities: Valuing and Protecting Our People, Advancing Responsibility, Supporting Our Communities, and Fostering Sustainable Operations.

    • IGT issued its first Human Rights Policy Statement which outlines the Company’s belief that promoting sustainable principles begins with respecting the basic rights to which all human beings are entitled. As a global organization, IGT is responsible for promoting human rights and contributing to meaningful change around the world.
    • Diversity and inclusion objectives were recently introduced for IGT’s senior leadership team, and in 2021, business unit leaders created action plans related to goals relative to diverse representation on their teams.

  • Fostering Sustainable Operations: IGT’s sustainability practices involve continual improvement of its environmental management systems and reduction of its impact on the environment.
