Clearly defining our sustainability priorities

While Sustainability covers a wide variety of areas, not all have a significant impact on our business. The materiality assessment we conducted helps us prioritize the Sustainability topics that are most material to us. We did this through:

  • Conducting industry-standard reviews.
  • Understanding our operating footprint.
  • Benchmarking top-tier companies, competitors, and customers.
  • Engaging with a cross-functional team of internal stakeholders.

Cohesity’s Sustainability strategy focuses on four key pillars

Operational footprint

Reducing the company’s environmental footprint across our operations and value chain.

 

Environmental sustainability policy launched

Employees and communities

Fostering an environment where employees thrive, while making a positive impact in the communities we call home.

 

5 days of paid Volunteer Time Off (VTO) annually per employee

Product sustainability

Developing innovative products that help our customers achieve their sustainability objectives.
