Corporate Bias Rating

Expand Summary

Risk Level:

Rating - Caution
Medium Risk

Summary:

Unisys often yields to political activism in shaping corporate governance, potentially alienating consumers, dividing employees, and harming shareholders. The company implements race and identity-based policies that replace merit, excellence, and integrity with preferential treatment and outcomes. Unisys occasionally embraces corporate initiatives that redirect its central focus from business goals to partisan policies and divisive issues at times. This approach fails to safeguard free exercise, free speech, and free enterprise.

Corporate Governance and Public Policy
Criteria

Uses corporate reputation to support causes, organizations, or policies hostile to freedom of expression.

Risk Level
Rationale

Unisys’ HRC 2025 CEI rating indicates the company agrees to allow a controversial stakeholder group focused on sexual identity issues to dictate marketing or advertising strategy. By doing so, the company risks dividing employees, alienating customers and harming shareholders (1)(2). Unisys’ CEO also announced that the “new Net Zero Goal marks a step forward in the maturing of Unisys sustainability strategy” (3). The company supports ESG into its business practices claiming a commitment “to making the world a better place for [its] stakeholders” (4).
