Operational Impact
The partnership with Watershed and the focus on climate action has significantly elevated TaskUs's business standing. The company went from having very little in place to becoming a leader in a client's supplier portfolio. The speed and agility with which TaskUs was able to gather all of its footprint data and present it to its customers in an authentic form helped build a reputation of leadership in the area of sustainability. TaskUs's focus on climate action has also driven positive results for its business, becoming a differentiating factor for winning and retaining clients. The company is now well prepared to confidently report on its climate work, whether it's engaging with investors or complying with new regulatory requirements. TaskUs has also become an evangelist for other companies to take swift action on driving down emissions. | |
