Nike Recognized as One of the Best Places to Work for LGBTQ+ Employees for the 20th Consecutive Year
In January, Nike was recognized as one of the Best Places to Work for LGBTQ+ employees for the 20th consecutive year on the Human Rights Campaign’s Corporate Equality Index. Nike is one of only seven out of more than 1,200 participating companies to achieve a 100 percent rating for the last two decades. The Corporate Equality Index is the preeminent national benchmarking tool on corporate policies, practices and benefits pertinent to LGBTQ+ employees and the primary driving force for LGBTQ+ workplace inclusion.
“We are thrilled to be recognized as one of the Best Places to Work for LGBTQ+ employees for the 20th consecutive year on the Human Rights Campaign’s Corporate Equality Index. This recognition highlights our global commitment to empowering and celebrating the lives and experiences of the LGBTQ+ community.” said Jarvis Sam, VP Diversity Equity and Inclusion at Nike. “As a company, we are committed to addressing the needs of all employees, but place a special focus on supporting underrepresented groups through our pillars of representation, education, development and creating community, and this recognition reflects that commitment.”
