Wesco International (NYSE:WCC), a leading provider of business-to-business distribution, logistics services and supply chain solutions, issued its annual sustainability report. The report outlines Wesco’s progress and key initiatives for advancing its environmental, social and governance (ESG) goals set in the 2021 report that include reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 30%, reducing landfill waste intensity by 15% across U.S. and Canadian locations, achieving a 15% reduction in total recordable incident rate (TRIR) and providing 425,000 hours of safety training and development to employees – all by 2030.  

 

Wesco has made significant progress toward achieving its 2030 sustainable development goals. The goal to achieve a 15% reduction in Total Recordable Incident Rates (TRIR) has already been met.
