Ziff Davis, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZD), received a perfect score of 100
on the Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s 2022 Corporate Equality
Index (CEI), the nation’s foremost benchmarking survey and report
measuring corporate policies and practices related to LGBTQ+
workplace equality. The Company earned its top score in its first
time participating in the Index, which named it one of the “Best
Places to Work for LGBTQ+ Employees.”
“Workplace equality for our colleagues who identify as
2SLGBTQIA+ is essential to our goal of maintaining a workplace
where all employees can thrive,” said Vivek Shah, Chief Executive
Officer of Ziff Davis. “We’re grateful to the leaders and members
of our PRISM Employee Resource Group, as they have been an
incredible source of guidance and perspective in our continuing
development of benefits, policies and programs that serve the needs
of our 2SLGBTQIA+ employees and foster an inclusive, supportive
workplace for us all.”
“When the Human Rights Campaign Foundation created the Corporate
Equality Index 20 years ago, we dreamed that LGBTQ+ workers—from
the factory floor to corporate headquarters, in big cities and
small towns—could have access to the policies and benefits needed
to thrive and live life authentically,” said Jay Brown, Human
Rights Campaign Senior Vice President of Programs, Research and
Training. “Congratulations to Ziff Davis for achieving the title of
‘Best Places to Work for LGBTQ+ Equality’ and working to advance
inclusion in the workplace.”
Ziff Davis’ efforts in satisfying all of CEI’s criteria earned a
100 percent ranking and the designation as one of the Best Places
to Work for LGBTQ+ Equality. The CEI rates companies on detailed
criteria falling under four central pillars:
- Non-discrimination policies across business entities;
- Equitable benefits for LGBTQ+ workers and their families;
- Supporting an inclusive culture; and,
- Corporate social responsibility.
