(London).-IGT maintains score of 100 on annual assessment recognizing LGBTQ+ workplace equality. The 2025 CEI includes a record 1,449 participants and showcases how U.S.-based companies promote LGBTQ+ friendly workplace policies in the U.S. and abroad.
International Game Technology PLC ("IGT") (NYSE: IGT) announced today that it maintained its top score of 100 on the Human Rights Campaign ("HRC") Foundation's 2025 Corporate Equality Index ("CEI"), the United States' foremost benchmarking survey and report measuring corporate policies and practices related to LGBTQ+ workplace equality.
The 2025 CEI includes a record 1,449 participants and showcases how U.S.-based companies promote LGBTQ+ friendly workplace policies in the U.S. and abroad. The CEI rated businesses on detailed criteria across four central pillars including non-discrimination policies across business entities; equitable benefits for LGBTQ+ workers and their families; supporting an inclusive culture; and corporate social responsibility.
"IGT once again achieving a top score in HRC Foundation's 2025 CEI showcases our commitment to building a diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace where LGBTQ+ employees can thrive and feel safe, supported and empowered," said Brian Blake, IGT Vice President, Diversity, Equity & Inclusion. "IGT believes that diversity, equity and inclusion are critical to the value we create in the market. We are continuously evolving our policies, practices and benefits to ensure IGT remains an inclusive employer for LGTBQ+ professionals, and this recognition from the HRC motivates us to continue fostering a culture where all employees feel valued."
IGT's Office of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion ("DEI") has implemented a range of programs, policy and systems changes, and leading practices that have promoted all dimensions of diversity to make it a more attractive and inclusive employer. These actions include, but are not limited to:
- Implementing more inclusive and equitable hiring processes, including utilizing LGBTQ+ job boards to post positions.
- Creating and supporting employee-led and executive-sponsored employee impact groups, including the LGBTQ+ group, PRIDE with IGT, to work cohesively with IGT's DEI team and support the development of new programming and policies.
- Facilitating mandatory and elective employee training courses that help support IGT's DEI initiatives, including training on unconscious bias, cultural awareness, and harassment.
- Establishing gender transition guidelines to best support an employee who is transitioning as well as their manager, human resources business partner, or a dependent.
- Establishing and enforcing transgender-inclusive restroom/facilities policy and gender-neutral dress code policies.
- Allowing employees to personally select and share their preferred pronouns.
