Mattel, Inc. (NASDAQ: MAT) has, for the second consecutive year,
received a perfect score of 100 on the Human Rights Campaign
Foundation’s Corporate Equality Index, the nation’s foremost
benchmarking survey and report measuring corporate policies and
practices related to LGBTQ+ workplace equality. Mattel joins the
ranks of more than 760 major U.S. businesses that also earned top
marks this year. The results were released today by The Human
Rights Campaign Foundation.
“Mattel is deeply honored to once again be recognized by the
Human Rights Campaign Foundation as one of the country’s top
workplaces for LGBTQ+ equality,” said Amy Thompson, Executive Vice
President and Chief People Officer, Mattel. “At Mattel, we create
innovative products and experiences that inspire, entertain and
develop children through play. And we know we do our best work when
every member of our team feels respected, included and heard. We
are committed to fostering an environment of inclusivity that
values and celebrates all voices, life experiences and
perspectives.”
“From the previously unimaginable impact of the COVID-19
pandemic, to a long overdue reckoning with racial injustice, 2020
was an unprecedented year. Yet, many businesses across the nation
stepped up and continued to prioritize and champion LGBTQ+
equality,” said Alphonso David, Human Rights Campaign President.
“This year has shown us that tools like the CEI are crucial in the
work to increase equity and inclusion in the workplace, but also
that companies must breathe life into these policies and practices
in real and tangible ways. Thank you to the companies that
understand protecting their LGBTQ+ employees and consumers from
discrimination is not just the right thing to do—but the best
business decision.”
The results of the 2021 CEI showcase how 1,142 U.S.-based
companies are not only promoting LGBTQ+-friendly workplace policies
in the U.S., but also for the 57% of CEI-rated companies with
global operations who are helping advance the cause of LGBTQ+
inclusion in workplaces abroad. Mattel’s efforts in satisfying all
CEI’s criteria earned a 100 percent ranking and the designation as
one of the Best Places to Work for LGBTQ Equality.
The CEI rates employers providing these crucial protections to
over 18 million U.S. workers and an additional 17 million abroad.
Companies rated in the CEI include Fortune magazine’s 500 largest
publicly traded businesses, American Lawyer magazine’s top 200
revenue-grossing law firms (AmLaw 200), and hundreds of publicly
and privately held mid- to large-sized businesses.
The CEI rates companies on detailed criteria falling under four
central pillars:
- Non-discrimination policies across business entities;
- Equitable benefits for LGBTQ+ workers and their families;
- Supporting an inclusive culture; and,
- Corporate social responsibility.
