Assurant, Inc. (NYSE: AIZ), a leading global business services
company that supports, protects and connects major consumer
purchases, has been named to the Forbes list of the Best Employers
for Diversity for the fourth consecutive year. This prestigious
award is presented by Forbes and Statista Inc., the world-leading
statistics portal and industry ranking provider. The 2023 awards
list was announced on April 25, 2023 and can currently be viewed on
the Forbes website.
The Best Employers for Diversity were selected based on a survey
of approximately 45,000 U.S. employees working for companies with a
minimum of 1,000 employees. The evaluation was based on three
criteria:
- Direct Recommendations: Employees were asked to give
their opinions on a series of statements regarding Age, Gender,
Ethnicity, Disability, LGBTQA+ and General Diversity in their
current workplace. The recommendations of women, elders, and ethnic
minorities were weighted higher than those in non-minority
groups.
- Indirect Recommendations: Participants were also given
the chance to evaluate other employers in their respective
industries that stand out, either positively or negatively,
regarding diversity. Only the recommendations of minority groups
were considered.
- KPIs: Extensive research was carried out to evaluate how
companies fared across a range of diversity-related best practices,
such as the presence of resource groups within the company, the
publication of diversity data, and the share of women in board and
executive positions.
“Diversity, equity and inclusion remains a strategic priority,
not only because it is core to our values but also because we have
seen it drive better business outcomes,” said Francesca Luthi,
chief administrative officer, Assurant. “We strive to continuously
improve and strengthen the communities in which we operate. Our
recognition as one of Forbes’ Best Employers for Diversity 2023 is
an important recognition of our commitment and progress.”
“Our employees and culture are the foundation of our success,”
said Alecia Bailey, global head of diversity, equity and inclusion,
Assurant. “This recognition reflects our ongoing commitment to our
diverse workforce and our continued efforts to attract and retain
diverse employees across the globe.”
