Bringing Social Responsibility to Outsourcing
SSA partners with the Rockefeller Foundation to launch Impact Sourcing on a global scale
Impact Sourcing is a business practice where companies prioritize suppliers that intentionally hire and provide career development opportunities to people who otherwise have limited prospects for a good job. Impact Sourcing can happen anywhere there’s an under-served workforce including in the United States.
In 2016, Jon Browning, CEO of SSA co-created the Global Impact Sourcing Coalition (GISC) in partnership with the Rockefeller Foundation and BSR to encourage the adoption of Impact Sourcing in the United States and around the world.
Today, GISC members represent 1.2 million BPO workers globally.
Jon is the Chairman of the IAOP CSR committee and created the Global Impact Sourcing Award that is presented every year at the Outsourcing World Summit.
