Human Rights Campaign Corporate Equality Index
 

Since 2003, Chubb has again attained the highest score (100%) on the Corporate Equality Index published by the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Foundation, a bipartisan political organization that works to advance equality based on sexual orientation and gender expression and identity. "We are proud that the Human Rights Campaign has recognized Chubb as a company that treats its employees fairly and with dignity and respect," said Kathleen Marvel, Chubb's former chief diversity officer.  "Chubb's success rests largely on our ability to create an inclusive work environment that motivates all employees to reach their full potential."

The Index measures how companies are treating their gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender employees, customers and investors. The HRC's Corporate Equality Index is based on a survey sent to the Fortune 1000, the Standard & Poor's 500, Forbes' list of the 200 largest privately held firms, the American Lawyer 100, and any company with at least 500 employees that asks to be rated or for which HRC has enough information to derive a score. Companies are rated on a scale from 0 to 100 percent on several key indicators of fair treatment for GLBT employees.  Indicators include policies prohibiting discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity and health care benefits for employees' partners.  The 2009 report rates 548 companies; 260 companies scored 100 percent.
