...The Civic 50—the first scientific evaluation to rank the companies that best use their time, talent, and resources to improve the quality of life where they do business. The survey was conducted by the National Conference on Citizenship (NCoC) and Points of Light and published in the November 9 issue of Bloomberg Businessweek.

Harris was evaluated in several areas, including leadership, employee engagement in the community, community partnerships, cause alignment and transparency.

“A commitment to civic responsibility is an integral and sustaining part of the Harris culture,” said William Brown, president and chief executive officer, Harris Corporation. “We focus our resources on programs and organizations that enrich the communities where we have operations, are relevant to the missions of our business and advance the education of young people who will lead our workforce in the years to come.”
