The CEI recognizes employers that take steps to ensure equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer workers and their families. The index is based on an annual survey administered to major U.S. employers, including Fortune 500 companies. It uses three rating criteria: non-discrimination policies; equitable benefits for LGBTQ individuals; and company support of an inclusive culture and corporate social responsibility.

“We have a strong culture of inclusion that celebrates each of the many different communities that make up our workforce,” said Meghan Henson, chief human resources officer, XPO Logistics. “By partnering with HRC and community organizations, we receive meaningful input that helps us continually improve our workplace in line with our values.”

Human Rights Campaign Foundation has published the CEI for 18 years with the goal of furthering LGBTQ inclusion in the corporate community.
