The Human Rights Campaign Foundation (HRC), yesterday released the popular guide to hundreds of American brands rated on businesses' treatment of LGBT employees. "Buying for Workplace Equality 2012" divides businesses and their consumer products into red, yellow and green categories based on their score on HRC Foundation's Corporate Equality Index.
The index is a nationally recognized benchmark of LGBT inclusion. The guide is available for download and viewing online at www.hrc.org/BuyersGuide.
"The holiday buying season is upon us and this year we again have the chance to send a message to businesses that we are watching," said HRC President Joe Solmonese. "Fair-minded consumers who care about how a company treats their LGBT employees have a powerful tool in the Buying for Workplace Equality Guide."
"This is our community's chance to vote with our dollars and send America's businesses a clear message that equal treatment of LGBT employees is good for the bottom line. Especially in today's economy, equality is good business." said Solmonese.
