NORWALK,
Conn., Dec. 5, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Terex
Corporation (NYSE: TEX) today announced that the Company has
received the "Equality 100 Award" from the 2023-2024 Human Rights
Campaign (HRC) Corporate Equality Index (CEI). The CEI is a
national benchmarking tool on corporate policies, practices, and
benefits pertinent to LGBTQ+ team members across the United States.
"We are delighted that Terex has been awarded a 100 score in our
first-ever Equality Index Review," said Gabrielle Tilley, Senior Director, Global
Inclusion and Culture. "This is recognition of the important work
our DEI team is doing, along with the leaders of our LGBTQ+ Pride
and other affinity groups. As a first-year applicant, Terex
documented a range of criteria used to evaluate companies and their
commitment to equality. I would like to thank all the team members
for the support and time they dedicated to discussing, researching,
and updating the required documentation."
"We are thrilled with the strides we've made in fostering
inclusion, but we recognize that our journey is far from over,"
said Amy George, SVP and Chief Human
Resources Officer. "This award recognizes our commitment to
fostering an inclusive and diverse workplace where every team
member feels safe, supported and valued."
Below are some of the highlights that contributed to Terex's 100
score:
- Inclusive benefits and non-discrimination policies
- Recruiting with specific efforts to reach the LGBTQ+
community
- Addition of personal pronouns in Team Member Central
- Inclusion of intersectionality in team member training
- Participation in three community pride events and multiple
social media posts supporting LGBTQ+ events
The current CEI rating criteria has four key pillars:
- Nondiscrimination policies across business entities
- Equitable benefits for LGBTQ+ workers and their families
- Supporting an inclusive culture
- Corporate social responsibility
A 100 rating on the index can benefit Terex by attracting top
LGBTQ+ and ally talent, as well as customers and investors who
recognize the value a company receives from fostering a diverse and
inclusive workplace. Index recognition affirms Terex as a socially
responsible and ethical organization committed to equality and
diversity. This, in turn, can lead to increased team member morale
and engagement, improved brand loyalty, and long-term business
success.
