Unilever is proud to be recognized as a “Best Place to Work” by
the Human Rights Campaign, achieving a perfect score of 100 percent
on the organization’s 2012 Corporate Equality Index for the fourth
year in a row. The ranking underscores the company’s commitment to
diversity and inclusion in the workplace, marketplace, and
community. Unilever was one of only eight CPG companies to earn the
top rating.
The Human Rights Campaign, the nation’s largest gay, lesbian,
bisexual and transgender civil rights organization, uses the
Corporate Equality Index as a measure to rank U.S. companies on
their treatment of LGBT employees, consumers and investors.
"Unilever is pleased to be a top performer on this year’s
Corporate Equality Index,” said Chris Herrick, Vice President of
Human Resources at Unilever. “It is a true honor that our efforts
and commitment to furthering equal rights for everyone in the
workplace have been recognized.”
The Human Rights Campaign’s 2012 Corporate Equality Index
chronicles a decade of progress in workplace equality, with 2012
marking the first year of more stringent criteria regarding
transgender health benefits. The Corporate Equality Index rates
companies on 40 specific policies and practices, 32 of which are
either new or more demanding than in previous years.
To achieve a perfect score, companies must have fully-inclusive
equal employment opportunity policies, provide equal employment
benefits, demonstrate organizational LGBT competency, evidence
their commitment to equality publicly and exercise responsible
citizenship. This year’s Corporate Equality Index tells a powerful
story of American businesses working to meet that higher bar.
Unilever was among 638 U.S. companies rated this year, with only
190 participants earning a perfect score of 100 percent. A full
