The 2019 Gender-Equality Index highlights 230
firms that are trailblazers in their commitment to transparency in
workplace gender reporting
Horace Mann today announced it is one of 230 companies selected
for the 2019 Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index (GEI) which
distinguishes companies committed to transparency in gender
reporting and advancing women’s equality. The index doubled in size
from 2018 and includes firms from 10 sectors headquartered across
36 countries and regions. Collectively, these firms have a combined
market capitalization of USD 9 trillion and employ more than 15
million people, of which 7 million are women, around the world.
Thirteen markets are represented for the first time this year and
include Argentina, China, Israel and South Africa.
“Our customers, K-12 educators, are diverse and we want an
organization that reflects that same diversity,” said Marita
Zuraitis, Horace Mann President and CEO. “Greater diversity leads
to better ideas and results, and is simply the right thing to do.
We appreciate this recognition from Bloomberg.”
Bloomberg’s standardized reporting framework offers public
companies the opportunity to disclose information on how they
promote gender equality across four separate areas – company
statistics, policies, community engagement and products and
services. Reporting companies that score above a
globally-established threshold, based on the extent of disclosures
and the achievement of best-in-class statistics and policies, are
included in the GEI.
“We applaud Horace Mann and the other 229 firms tracked by the
index for their action to measure gender equality through the
Bloomberg GEI framework,” said Peter T. Grauer, Chairman of
Bloomberg and Founding Chairman of the U.S. 30% Club. “Horace
Mann’s GEI inclusion is a strong indicator to its employees,
investors and industry peers alike that it is leading by example to
advance ongoing efforts for a truly inclusive workplace.”
The Bloomberg gender reporting framework is voluntary and has no
associated costs. The GEI is a reference index. All public
companies can submit data to Bloomberg. Those with a security
listed on a U.S. exchange and a market capitalization of USD 1
billion or greater are eligible for index inclusion. For more

index on Friday, January 18, 2019.
