The COVID-19 pandemic has been one of those seismic events that really brings to light the issues that truly matter in business and life. In a public survey conducted by JUST Capital in 2020, 92% of Americans said it's important for large companies to promote an economy that serves all Americans; however, only 50% said they believe that companies are actually achieving that goal. Eighty-nine percent of respondents also said that now is the time for large companies to hit "reset" and focus on doing right by their workers, customers, communities, and the environment.

A poll of more than 4,500 Americans identified 19 issues as essential to a "just' business, including paying a fair & livable wage, protecting worker safety, protecting customer privacy, combating climate change, supporting local communities, cultivating diversity & inclusion and more. JUST Captial then collects and evaluates data from different sources on how each of the companies in the Russell 1000 Index performs across each of the issues. As a final step, the organization creates a ranking model that leverages survey research and company evaluations to score and rank companies.
