Integrated into Kelly's growth strategy, our Corporate Sustainability and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Strategy is built upon six key pillars and aligned to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs).   

This strategy guides Kelly's commitment to creating shared value by delivering our promise of connecting people to work that enrich their lives, while making a positive impact on our planet, with our customers, and in the communities where we live and work.

Materiality

Our Corporate Sustainability and ESG strategy is anchored in a formal materiality assessment that analyzes the relevance of stakeholders, the severity of risk, and the impact of ESG issues on our business success. In 2021, we conducted our second materiality assessment with key stakeholders to validate and prioritize significant ESG issues, allowing us to define performance indicators and initiatives within our sustainability strategy and ESG reporting.
