Recognized for commitment to diversity, equity,
inclusion, and reporting transparency for fourth consecutive
year
Horace Mann Educators Corporation (NYSE:HMN) today announced it
is one of 418 companies worldwide included in the 2022 Bloomberg
Gender-Equality Index (GEI), which recognizes corporate commitment
to transparency in gender reporting and advancing women’s equality.
Horace Mann has been included in the index since its inception in
2019.
“We are proud to be included for the fourth year in the
Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index, which demonstrates our continued
commitment to nurturing an inclusive corporate culture where every
employee feels heard, respected and appreciated,” said Horace Mann
President and CEO Marita Zuraitis. “We remain dedicated to learning
and growing as we continue to diversify our workforce and support
our employees.”
The GEI brings transparency to gender-related practices and
policies at publicly listed companies increasing the breadth of
environmental, social and governance (ESG) data available to
investors. The comprehensive, transparent GEI scoring methodology
allows investors to assess company performance and compare across
industry peer groups.
The reference index measures gender equality across five
pillars: female leadership and talent pipeline, equal pay and
gender pay parity, inclusive culture, sexual harassment policies,
and pro-women brand.
Through disclosure of gender-related metrics using the GEI
framework, the firms included in the 2022 GEI have committed to
provide a comprehensive look at their investment in workplace
gender equality and the communities in which they operate, raising
the bar of what should be expected from other companies within the
same industry. Horace Mann was included in this year’s index for
scoring at or above a global threshold established by Bloomberg to
reflect a high level of disclosure and overall performance across
the framework’s five pillars.
Both the framework and the GEI are voluntary and have no
associated costs. The GEI is a reference index and is not for use
as a financial benchmark. The index is not ranked. While all public
companies are encouraged to disclose supplemental gender data for
their company’s investment profile on the Bloomberg Terminal, those
that have a market capitalization of at least $1 billion are
eligible for inclusion in the index. To learn more please visit the
GEI website. Bloomberg Terminal subscribers can access the GEI at
