Humana announces its 100 rating in the Human
Rights Campaign Foundation’s assessment of LGBTQ+ workplace
equality for the eleventh year in a row
Leading health insurer and health care services company Humana
Inc. (NYSE: HUM), has earned a score of 100 on the Human Rights
Campaign Foundation (HRCF) Corporate Equality Index (CEI) for the
11th year in a row. The Corporate Equality Index is the nation’s
foremost benchmarking survey and report measuring corporate
policies and practices related to LGBTQ+ workplace equality. Humana
joins the 765 U.S. businesses that will be honored with HRCF’s
Equality 100 Award as Leaders in LGBTQ+ Workplace Inclusion.
The recognition reflects Humana’s longstanding commitment to
building and maintaining a culture of belonging where each employee
feels valued and has both opportunity and support to reach their
full potential. Carolyn Tandy, SVP and Chief Diversity, Equity and
Inclusion Officer shared, “We are honored to receive the Equality
100 Award from the Humana Rights Campaign Foundation. Participation
in this survey helps us gain valuable insights in our progress to
towards creating an inclusive environment for our members, patients
and employees reflective of the diverse communities we so proudly
serve.”
The results of the 2025 CEI showcase how U.S.-based companies
are promoting LGBTQ+ friendly workplace policies in the U.S. and
abroad. The first year of the CEI included 319 participants, and
the 2025 CEI now surveys 1,449 participants, further demonstrating
the tremendous growth of the CEI. A record-breaking 98 percent of
CEI businesses have nondiscrimination protections specific to
gender identity. The CEI rates employers providing these crucial
protections to more than 22 million U.S. workers and includes
Fortune magazine’s 500 largest publicly traded businesses 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.
