Electronic Arts has earned the distinction of being the "Best Places to Work for LGBT Equality" for 2013. This was announced by the Human Rights Campaign, EA reported.
"I am very pleased that EA has scored a 100% rating and been recognized by the Human Rights Campaign in a year where the company has taken significant steps to remain inclusive," said Gabrielle Toledano, Chief Talent Officer, EA. "EA has made changes to our medical benefits, been involved in LGBT events in our community and taken a public stance against the Defense of Marriage Act. EA champions diversity with a work environment where everyone feels welcome and can be themselves."
For companies or business entities to be on the list, they have to "demonstrate policies, benefits and practices that are best-in-class" to lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender."
The Human Rights Campaign's Corporate Equality Index (CEI) report gives rating and an in-depth analysis of large U.S. employers and their policies and practices to LGBT employees.
