BLACK ENTERPRISE is proud to present this year’s best companies for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). This list features a superb group of publicly traded companies that have committed to ensuring a dynamic workforce, inclusive management, as well as other diversity-centered efforts. DEI initiatives are an indispensable aspect of creating a progressive workplace. BE recognizes the corporations that work to facilitate equal work and growth opportunities, especially as many companies recuperate from the financial downturn caused by COVID-19 and in the wake of regressive measures to eliminate equity in the workforce. In addition to the following list, BE honored the phenomenal individuals and organizations who have spearheaded these strategies at the Chief Diversity Officers Summit and Honors ceremony, which was hosted at Rockefeller Center’s Rainbow Room.
“BLACK ENTERPRISE is proud to unveil our distinguished roster of companies that have demonstrated an unwavering dedication to DEI across various dimensions, including their employee base, senior management, board of directors, and procurement,” said BE‘s esteemed Executive Vice President & Chief Content Officer Derek Dingle.
“Our diligent editorial research team conducted a comprehensive analysis, meticulously examining the ethnic and gender composition and the efficacy of programs aimed at nurturing an inclusive work environment. We thoroughly evaluated company standings by utilizing surveys, BLACK ENTERPRISE’s wealth of diversity and corporate leadership data, as well as engaging with diversity departments and relevant organizations.”
