Sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility at Paychex

Paychex is a Purpose-driven organization and has been since our founding. That Purpose is simple but powerful – helping businesses succeed. We support entrepreneurs and business leaders in building companies and strong economies in the communities we serve. By doing so we help impact the world for the better.

Environmental Sustainability

We are committed to reducing the environmental impact from our operations and strive for continuous improvement in all key areas. We have revised our Environmental Policy to align with our ambition of achieving Net Zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050.

Community Impact and Philanthropy

Paychex has a longstanding commitment to the communities in which its employees live and work across the United States. Within these 100+ communities, Paychex and its employees organize community fundraisers, participate in local challenge events, volunteer at food pantries and clothing drives, or commit time to a personal cause. In addition, Paychex provides free or discounted services to a number of charitable groups and organizations.

Our employees support ongoing causes as well as responses to emergencies and disasters.
We provide each employee with eight hours of paid time off every year to volunteer for a community organization.
United Way, the Salvation Army, the American Cancer Society, and the American Heart Association are just some of the groups supported at the local level.
