(NYSE:CBG) announced that it received a perfect score of 100 percent for the fifth straight year on the 2018 Corporate Equality Index (CEI), a national benchmarking survey and report on corporate policies and practices related to LGBT workplace equality. With its high score in the CEI, administered by the Human Rights Campaign Foundation, CBRE is recognized as a Best Place to Work for LGBT Equality. Karen Ellzey and Chris Ludeman, co-executive sponsors of the company’s LGBT & Allies Network Group, said: “CBRE is deeply committed to creating a workplace culture that attracts the industry’s top talent and encourages our colleagues to bring their full and best selves to work each day. We are honored by this recognition, and thank the leaders of our LGBT & Allies and our other employee network groups for helping CBRE build a culture of excellence through inclusiveness.” The 2018 CEI rated over 947 major businesses in the report, which evaluates LGBT-related policies and practices such as non-discrimination workplace protections, domestic partner benefits, transgender-inclusive health care benefits, competency programs, and public engagement with the LGBT community. CBRE’s LGBT & Allies Network Group plays an instrumental role in ensuring CBRE satisfies all the CEI’s criteria and in engaging with national organizations such as Out & Equal that advocate for workplace equality.
