Today, the Human Rights Campaign Foundation (HRC) announced the results of its 2020 Corporate Equality Index (CEI), the nation’s premier benchmarking survey and report measuring corporate policies and practices related to LGBTQ workplace equality. Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati received a score of 100 percent and the designation as a Best Place to Work for LGBTQ Equality. The firm joins the ranks of more than 680 major U.S. businesses that also earned top marks this year.
The CEI rates companies and top law firms on detailed criteria falling under five broad categories: non-discrimination policies, employment benefits, demonstrated organizational competency and accountability around LGBTQ diversity and inclusion, public commitment to LGBTQ equality, and responsible citizenship. The results of this year’s CEI showcase how 1,059 U.S.-based companies are not only promoting LGBTQ-friendly workplace policies in the U.S., but helping advance the cause of LGBTQ inclusion in workplaces abroad.
