BURLINGTON, Mass., Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Nuance
Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: NUAN) announced today that it has
been named one of 2021's "Best Places to Work for LGBTQ Equality"
by the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Foundation. This is the third
year in a row that the company has received a score of 100% on the
Corporate Equality Index (CEI), a national benchmarking tool that
evaluates corporate policies and practices pertaining to lesbian,
gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) employees. The CEI is
conducted annually by the Human Rights Campaign Foundation to
assess the equal and fair treatment of LGBTQ individuals in the
workplace. Nuance joins more than 760 major U.S. businesses that
also earned top marks this year.
"We are fiercely committed to creating an inclusive and diverse
environment where all our employees can be their true and authentic
selves as they work together to develop amazing outcomes for our
customers worldwide," said Beth
Conway, Executive Vice President and Chief People &
Places Officer. "We are incredibly proud to receive this
distinction from the Human Rights Campaign Foundation."
The results of this year's CEI highlights how more than 1,100
U.S.-based companies are promoting LGBTQ-friendly workplace
policies in the U.S. and helping to advance the cause of LGBTQ
inclusion in workplaces abroad. The CEI rates companies on detailed
criteria including non-discrimination policies, equitable benefits
for LGBTQ workers and their families, a supportive and inclusive
culture, and corporate social responsibility.
Nuance is deeply committed to supporting all its employees both
professionally and personally, and to creating a workplace that is
inclusive, diverse, and equitable. In addition to global
policies that prohibit discrimination of any kind, the company
offers inclusive benefits for employees and their families,
promotes equality for all, and supports diversity, equity and
inclusion education and programs.
Being awarded the Human Rights Campaign Foundation's 2021's
"Best Places to Work for LGBTQ Equality" distinction is just one in
a series of Employer of Choice accolades that Nuance has received,
including most recently being named the #1 Best Place to Work by
Built In Boston, a Top Employer by the Boston Globe, a Top 50
Company to Sell For in 2020 by Selling Power, and a certified
