For the fourth consecutive year, Dow (NYSE: DOW) has received a
top score on the 2020 Disability Equality Index® (DEI), again
placing the Company among the “Best Places to Work for Disability
Inclusion.” Administered jointly by Disability:IN and the American
Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD), the DEI serves as
the most comprehensive benchmarking tool for disability
inclusion.
“Dow’s top rating on the 2020 Disability Equality Index is a
testament to the inclusive culture we are building,” said Peter
Holicki, executive sponsor for Dow’s Disability Employee Network
and senior vice president of operations, manufacturing and
engineering. “We recognize that an inclusive culture – one that
creates an environment where everyone can thrive – delivers
significant business results and fosters a true sense of pride,
inspiration and belonging for all colleagues.”
The DEI survey measures key performance indicators across
culture, leadership, accessibility, employment practices, community
engagement, support services and supplier diversity. Participating
companies self-reported their disability policies and practices,
and were then scored on a scale from zero to 100.
Dow is committed to creating an inclusive workplace where all
employees can bring their whole selves to work. In addition to
Dow’s policies and programs, the company offers an employee
resource group, the Disability Employee Network (DEN), to empower
employees with disabilities and to raise awareness and educate
about disabilities to become better allies.

commitment to inclusion and diversity and to explore its annual
inclusion report, SHINE 2019.
