Organization
Scottish company which distills Scotch whisky and other selected categories of spirits
William Grant & Sons earned a Lower Risk rating because it largely avoids politicized governance practices, discriminatory giving, and activist-driven initiatives that could divide employees or alienate customers. While most criteria scored favorably, a Medium Risk mark in employment protection and advocacy bias suggests some minor areas of concern rather than a fully clean record.
