TE Connectivity Ltd. on Sept. 16, announced that it has been named to the Dow Jones Sustainability North America Index for the fourth consecutive year. Launched in 1999, the Dow Jones Sustainability North America Indices evaluate the sustainability performance of the largest 2,500 companies listed on the Dow Jones Global Total Stock Market Index.
