Acuity is named a 2022 Better Business Bureau (BBB) Torch Award for Ethics Winner. A Torch Award is the most prestigious honor BBB presents to businesses that demonstrate an outstanding commitment to integrity and ethical practices.
 

“We are tremendously honored to be recognized by BBB with a Torch Award for Ethics and hope that our ethical business practices are an inspiration to others,” said Acuity President and CEO Ben Salzmann. “The BBB’s focus on ethics is vital for the world today. We all must kindle an even stronger focus on ethics to support all positive aspects of humanity. This focus must start at the community level, in daily life, and rise to a global inspiration. We can make a difference.”
 

Acuity’s selection as a winner from the BBB was based on an independent panel of judges comprised of business and community leaders who evaluated the insurer’s commitment to ethics across the areas of character, culture, customers, and community. Since 2003, BBB has honored businesses and nonprofit organizations of all sizes that meet the highest standard of ethics and trust among their employees, customers, and local communities, embodying BBB's mission to advance marketplace trust.
 

“This year, we had more applicants than in the past five years,” said Julie Albrecht, Executive Director of the BBB of Wisconsin Foundation. “These organizations should be immensely proud of their commitment to ethics in their day-to-day operations.”
