Overview
(January 27, 2022, Washington, DC) — For the fifth consecutive year, Steptoe has achieved a top score of 100 and earned the title of "Best Place to Work for LGBTQ Equality" in the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Foundation's Corporate Equality Index (CEI). The 2022 CEI rates companies and top law firms on detailed criteria in three broad categories: workforce protections, inclusive benefits, and supporting an inclusive culture and corporate social responsibility.
Since 2002, the HRC Foundation has published the CEI report based largely on the annual CEI survey administered to hundreds of major global employers. The first Index in 2002 had 13 top-rated 500 largest publicly traded businesses. Companies rated in the CEI include Fortune magazine's 500 largest publicly traded businesses (Fortune 500), The American Lawyer magazine's top 200 revenue-grossing law firms (AmLaw 200), and hundreds of publicly and privately held mid-to-large-sized businesses.
