Who We Are
Corporate Responsibility Report
Regardless of where we are in the economic cycle, issues such as governance, ethics, safety, environment, employee and community relations are a priority for us and we believe are fundamental to thriving as a sustainable company in our recovering economy. You’ll read more about our actions, progress and challenges in addressing these topics and our efforts to be a smart, safe and sustainable manufacturer in our Corporate Responsibility Report.
Rockwell Automation’s mission is to improve the standard of living for everyone by making the world more productive and sustainable. That’s what we do every day. Our products, services and solutions contribute directly to the consistent and improved quality of hundreds of products we use every day -- cars, food, drinks, personal care, pharmaceuticals, and more. Our technology helps our customers ensure these products are reliable, affordable and available when the market demands. These products start with the raw materials from the resource-based industries we serve including oil and gas, paper, metals, and water to name a few. And the employees who make those products work in clean, safe and energy-efficient manufacturing environments.
We believe if manufacturers are going to thrive in the post-recession global economy and help drive a global economic rebound, they need to adopt smart, safe, sustainable manufacturing technologies and practices. Smart, safe, and sustainable manufacturing enables manufacturers to increase productivity, meet business objectives and improve their ability to compete through better plant-wide use of energy and other natural resources, increased plant safety, and enhanced product safety and quality. A smart, information-enabled factory becomes a more energy efficient and safer factory.
We appreciate the growing awareness that there is more to a company than just financial results and welcome the opportunity for people to have a better understanding of our company, our people and our culture.
