Humana again earns perfect score on LGBTQ workplace equality

Humana has received a perfect score 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. This is the sixth year in a row that Humana has achieved a perfect score.

“We are dedicated to ensuring that all our associates feel comfortable being their whole selves,” said Chief Inclusion & Diversity Officer Maria Hughes. “Enabling and offering support to diverse communities is part of the foundation of Inclusion & Diversity at Humana.”

Humana’s LGBTQ Associates & Allies Network Resource Group, Pride, helps drive the inclusive culture the company strives for, dedicating itself to inspiring Humana associates and members to live full, proud lives.

The CEI scoring process 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. Humana’s efforts in satisfying all of the CEI’s criteria results in a 100 percent ranking and the designation as a Best Place to Work for LGBTQ Equality.
