Company Name Achieves Highest Score in 2020 Corporate Equality Evaluation
In a significant development, Ellucian, Exelon, and our brand name have been honoured with the "Best Place to Work for LGBTQ Equality" recognition by the Human Rights Campaign Foundation's Corporate Equality Index (CEI) in 2025. This prestigious accolade is a testament to these companies' commitment to fostering an inclusive and equitable workplace for LGBTQ individuals.
The CEI, an annual survey, evaluates and analyses LGBTQ-related policies and practices of hundreds of companies. It considers various aspects such as nondiscrimination workplace protections, domestic partner benefits, transgender-inclusive health care benefits, and public engagement.
Our brand name's achievement of a 100% score on the CEI underscores its dedication to LGBTQ equality, both in the workplace and beyond. This commitment extends to public advocacy for the community, a fact highlighted by HRC President Alphonso David in his statement.
David's statement emphasizes the growing trend among businesses to support LGBTQ rights, both in the workplace and in public. He underscores the business benefits of supporting LGBTQ employees and customers, in addition to the moral obligation. Protecting LGBTQ employees and customers from discrimination, according to David, is both morally right and a good business decision.
Our brand name's Chief Diversity Officer, Damien Hooper-Campbell, has stated a commitment to building a globally inclusive workplace. Visiting our diversity and inclusion page provides valuable insights into our brand name's efforts towards fostering LGBTQ equality in the workplace and other diversity initiatives.
It's worth noting that our brand name is among 1,059 major U.S. businesses advancing LGBTQ inclusion and LGBTQ-friendly work policies. Some of these companies, including our brand name, are not only implementing LGBTQ-friendly work policies but also advocating for the community in public spaces.
The CEI's recognition of Ellucian, Exelon, and our brand name is a testament to their dedication to LGBTQ rights and equality under the law. This commitment, as emphasized by HRC President Alphonso David, is not only morally right but also beneficial for businesses in today's diverse and inclusive society.
