corporate allies who see LGBTQ equality as a crucial issue for our
country and for their businesses,” said HRC President Chad
Griffin.
“We’re honored by this recognition of our long-standing
commitment to equality and our focus on fostering a culture of
inclusion,” said Jon Kroehler, chief human resources officer,
Navient. “We know that being deliberately inclusive – being truly
welcoming and supportive of all persons in our practices and
policies – is both the right approach and the approach that drives
positive company performance because of the terrific workforce it
helps us attract.”
