The United Nations Global Compact brings companies together to align strategies and operations with 10 principles to advance societal goals. WEPs offer guidance to companies on how they can achieve the highest standards of gender equality and women’s empowerment in the workplace.

“ESRT is committed to its industry-leading sustainability practices and culture of inclusion and equity,” said Anthony E. Malkin, chairman, president, and CEO at Empire State Realty Trust. “We are pleased to be the first office REIT in the U.S. to adopt the Women’s Empowerment Principles and sign on to the United Nations Global Compact to publicly show these commitments.”

Both ESRT commitments are voluntary, principles-based approaches to business that meet fundamental responsibilities in human rights, gender equality, labor, environment, and anti-corruption. ESRT’s long-term commitment to the United Nations Global Compact and WEPs will accelerate progress towards its aggressive ESG and DE&I goals. Through its annual Sustainability Report, ESRT continues to transparently share its ESG and DE&I strategies, targets, and progress.

More information about ESRT’s sustainability practices can be found online.
