Mathematica is proud to announce that for the second year in a row our employee-owned company has been named a Best Place to Work for LGBTQ Equality by the Human Rights Campaign (HRC). This year as last, Mathematica received a perfect score of 100 percent on HRC’s Corporate Equality Index survey, meeting the complete slate of index criteria while continuing to prioritize the growth and improvement of diversity in our workplace. The HRC Corporate Equality Index is the nation’s premier benchmarking survey and report measuring corporate policies and practices related to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning/queer (LGBTQ) workplace equality. As one of 767 businesses receiving top marks this year, Mathematica has been recognized for the inclusive and supportive policies that inform our employment benefits, staff training, workplace culture, and corporate accountability practices.
“This recognition from the Human Rights Campaign is a testament to the vision of our Diversity Council, employee resource groups, trans-inclusion committee, and other leaders across our company who have fostered an environment where we all can bring our full selves to work each day,” said Paul Decker, Mathematica’s president and chief executive officer. “We also know that the work of ensuring a diverse and inclusive workplace must be ongoing, and we are committed to doing even more to support our LGBTQ colleagues in the future.”
Mathematica’s commitment to supporting LGBTQ employees includes comprehensive domestic partner benefits, transgender-inclusive health insurance coverage, nondiscrimination and unconscious bias training, the use of gender-inclusive language, and an active LGBTQ employee resource group that offers social and educational events throughout the year. The full Corporate Equality Index report is available at www.hrc.org/cei.
