This extensive annual survey is the most rigorous, data-driven
analysis of diversity management practices in corporate America.
Results are derived from corporate survey submissions from
companies with at least 1,000 employees, and companies are
evaluated within the context of their own industries. More than
1,800 companies participated in 2019.
“Inclusion and diversity are foundational values at Humana,”
said Bruce Broussard, Humana’s President and CEO. “Our associates
know that their opinions matter, and that their passions, strengths
and expertise are valued and appreciated. This important sense of
belonging enables our team to do its best work, which makes our
company stronger and improves the care we provide our
customers.”
Humana also was named in the following Specialty Lists: No. 9 in
Top Companies for People with Disabilities by the National
Organization for Disabilities (NOD); Top Companies for LGBT
Employees; and No. 13 Top Companies for Employee Resource Groups.
More Specialty List rankings will be announced on the DiversityInc
website.
Companies evaluated for the TOP 50 list are measured in six key
areas of diversity and inclusion management:
- Human Capital Diversity Metrics: gender and
racial/ethnicity breakdown of representation in overall workforce
representation, overall management, senior management, new hires,
promotions, and 10% highest paid populations
- Leadership Accountability: CEO/senior leadership
commitment and accountability, board of directors, office of
diversity and inclusion, diversity council practices and
representation metrics
- Talent Programs: employee resource groups, mentoring,
high potential and sponsorship programs, practices and
participation metrics
- Workplace Practices: talent acquisition, talent
management, onboarding, diversity training, workforce development
and engagement, LGBT, people with disabilities, military community
and employee benefits policies and practices
- Supplier Diversity: spend with companies owned by people
from underrepresented groups, accountability, and practices
- Philanthropy: contributions to non-profit organizations
focused on people from underrepresented groups, employee
volunteerism and matching programs and practices
“We’re honored to be on this list because it reflects Humana’s
culture of inclusion, allowing all of our associates to feel
valued, welcome and free to do their best work,” said Maria Hughes,
Senior Vice President and Chief Inclusion & Diversity Officer
at Humana. “We’re all multi-dimensional, and it’s our diversity and
inclusive culture that helps us attract and retain top talent,
innovate rapidly and help our members achieve their best health. By
nurturing a meaningful and safe work environment, we can combat
bias and foster dialogue over debate.”
The survey, which began in 2001, helps benchmark organizations’
programs, practices, policies and outcomes related to inclusion and
diversity. The Top 50 survey tracks human capital outcomes and
connects companies with best practices to develop underrepresented
groups in the workplace. Results are highly regarded by
corporations, government agencies, academia and the public at
large.
