Highlights of our FY22 ESG Governance efforts:

  • We have expanded our ESG strategic framework from four to nine pillars as we believe pursuing a robust ESG strategy is critical for the continued success of Paychex. These pillars are: Ethics; Governance; Privacy and Security; Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion; Employees; Environment; Community; Empowering Businesses; and Occupational Safety.

  • Our Board of Directors remains focused on the long-term sustainability of our business. Effective in the fourth quarter of FY22, the Board divided the responsibilities of the Governance and Compensation Committee into two separate Board committees: The Compensation and Leadership (C&L) Committee and the Nominating & ESG (N&E) Committee.

  • The C&L Committee assists the Board by providing oversight of the design and administration of the company's executive and director compensation plans; and evaluates and determines compensation of members of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, and senior executive officers. The N&E Committee provides oversight of the company's risks, reporting and disclosures with respect to ESG matters, including an update on the annual assessment of environmental or climate-related risks facing the company. The N&E Committee also oversees policies and programs related to environmental sustainability and philanthropic and political activities. In addition, the N&E Committee assists the Board with attracting, developing, promoting, and retaining directors and executives from diverse backgrounds with the talents and skills critical to the long-term success of the company.

  • In FY22, a portion of the CEO's qualitative goals was based on DEI and ESG program improvements. Going forward in FY23, DEI and ESG program improvement goals have been included as a qualitative component to cash incentive plan metrics for all executives.

In FY22, our MSCI ESG Rating improved from BBB to A and our FTSE Russell ESG Rating improved from 2.8 to 3.3

Paychex is included in FTSE4GOOD Index Series.
