The annual index recognizes companies for their policies and
practices in support of women in the workforce across five pillars:

"We embrace and respect the range of experiences and viewpoints
our employees bring to work every day and uplift the incredible
contributions of the women in our workforce," said Sarah London, CEO of Centene. "Our diverse and
inclusive culture is a vital part of how we serve our members and
local communities across the country."

employee base, with 66% at the supervisor level and above.
To further enhance Centene's inclusive workforce culture, the

Open to all employees, EIGs are voluntary, employee-led groups
that drive impact by supporting the attraction,
development and retention of the best talent at all
levels. Centene's Women's Employee Inclusion Group
I.N.S.P.I.R.E (Influence. Network. Support. Promote. Include.

professional and personal goals at all career and life stages. The

sessions, mentoring and community engagement to develop women as
