Humana Inc. (NYSE: HUM) announced today that it has been recognized on the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index and the Dow Jones Sustainability North America Index for the fourth consecutive year. Humana was one of only two health insurers selected to the prestigious Dow Jones Sustainability North America Index this year, reflecting the company's strong economic, environmental and social performance.

"We are honored to be recognized once again as a leader by the Dow Jones Sustainability Index," said Mike McCallister, Humana Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. "Responsibility and the commitment to a healthy planet, healthy people and healthy performance are fundamental to Humana's culture and an integral driver of long-term shareholder value."

The Dow Jones Sustainability Indexes (DJSI) identify companies as leaders in sustainability according to objective benchmarks linked to economic, environmental and social performance. Companies must meet rigorous criteria including corporate governance, transparency, environmental and social policies and management, and corporate citizenship and philanthropy.

In addition to DJSI, Humana is recognized on the FTSE4Good Index Series.
