Liberty Mutual Insurance is proud to announce that it has received a rating of 100 percent on the 2018 Corporate Equality Index (CEI), a national benchmarking survey and report on corporate policies and practices related to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) workplace equality, administered by the Human Rights Campaign Foundation. Liberty Mutual joins the ranks of 609 major U.S. businesses that also earned top marks this year.
Diversity & Inclusion is part of every aspect of how Liberty Mutual does business including development, customer & community engagement, talent acquisition, workplace environment, and communication. United by our common purpose and principles, we value the unique backgrounds and cultures of our employees.
“Earning a CEI score of 100 is a significant milestone,” said David H. Long, Chief Executive Officer at Liberty Mutual Insurance. “It reflects our commitment to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace, one that values our employees and supports our LGBTQ and ally community. We are extremely proud of this achievement and thankful to everyone throughout the organization who has made it possible.”
The 2018 CEI rated 947 businesses in the report, which evaluates LGBTQ-related policies and practices including non-discrimination workplace protections, domestic partner benefits, transgender-inclusive health care benefits, competency programs and public engagement with the LGBTQ community. Liberty Mutual’s efforts in satisfying all of the CEI’s criteria resulted in the 100 percent ranking and its designation as a Best Place to Work for LGBTQ Equality.
In placing a deliberate focus on shared principles, Liberty has developed a stronger organization with an engaged and high-performing workforce, a loyal customer base and sustainable competitive advantage in the marketplace.
“When I joined Liberty Mutual Insurance in 2013 to lead Liberty’s D&I efforts, my message to employees was simple: Diversity is about all of us and inclusion requires all of us,” said Dawn Frazier-Bohnert, SVP and Chief Diversity & Inclusion Officer at Liberty Mutual Insurance. “Receiving a 100 percent rating from HRC reinforces that we’re moving in the right direction of strengthening our inclusive environment. With the foundational work laid, we are now using the momentum we’ve built to move from awareness to action by applying a D&I lens at a deeper level throughout the organization.”
