Conduent Recognized as a Top Employer for LGBT+ Inclusion in India Workplace Equality Index (IWEI) 2022

Thu, 01 Dec 2022 06:30:00 GMT

BANGALORE, India, Dec. 01, 2022 -- Conduent Incorporated (Nasdaq: CNDT), a global technology-led business process solutions company, today announced that it has been recognized in the ‘Silver Employer’ award category as a Top Employer for LGBT+ inclusion by the India Workplace Equality Index (IWEI) 2022.

‘Silver’ awards recognize those employers that have made significant achievements in promoting LGBT+ inclusion at the workplace, demonstrating progress and impact over time.

This recognition is based on a comprehensive index that examines nine key areas around LGBT+ inclusion: policies and benefits; employee life cycle; employee resource group; allies and role models; senior leadership; monitoring; procurement; community engagement; other company initiatives.

“Conduent is passionate about its commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion globally. For our part in India, we are constantly working towards providing a workplace that welcomes everyone and supports equal opportunities for growth and development. Being recognized by the IWEI is a testament to our continuing progress in LGBTQ inclusion,” said Manish Sharma, Country Head, at Conduent India.

IWEI Top Employers, which this year features 105 organizations from across 17 industries, is the definitive list showcasing the best employers in India for lesbian, gay, bi and trans employees. The list is compiled from submissions where each entrant demonstrates their organization’s performance against a set of best practice criteria accompanied by supporting evidence. Of the 105 organizations that submitted entries, 83 were given awards.

“As partners, we are incredibly proud to be celebrating the results of the third annual India Workplace Equality Index (IWEI), recognizing the great strides that employers have made across India to improve the working lives of LGBT+ people. With over 100 organizations now participating in IWEI, we hope that this is the turning point for corporate India, and that more employers recognize the true value of supporting LGBT+ people to bring their full selves to work. We are hugely inspired by the outstanding commitment of Conduent in pushing for change for LGBT+ people in the workplace, and we cannot wait to see what advances it makes in 2023,” said Keshav Suri, Ram Sinha, and Nancy Kelley, IWEI founders.

As part of its commitment to workplace equality, Conduent advances its support for LGBTQ+ employees – and diversity in general – in many ways, including the company’s Employee Impact Group (EIG) program. The Pride Impact Group seeks to inspire LGBTQ+ associates to bring their whole selves to work, share their experiences and connect LGBTQ+ associates across countries and business groups to share knowledge and skills. EIGs are voluntary employee groups that are organized around shared experiences or associations to help contribute to a positive and supportive workplace.

Conduent Earns Top Score in Human Rights Campaign Foundation's 2022 Corporate Equality Index

Thu, 27 Jan 2022 14:00:00 GMT

FLORHAM PARK, N.J., Jan. 27, 2022 -- Conduent Incorporated (Nasdaq: CNDT), a business process solutions company, today announced that it received a perfect score of 100 on the Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s 2022 Corporate Equality Index (CEI), the nation’s foremost benchmarking survey and report measuring corporate policies and practices related to LGBTQ+ workplace equality. Conduent joins the ranks of over 840 major U.S. businesses that also earned top marks this year.

“ At Conduent, inclusivity is a core value of our corporate culture,” said Cliff Skelton, President and CEO of Conduent. “Our associates’ commitment to fostering an inclusive and diverse environment continues to strengthen our company and its culture. On behalf of the entire Conduent team, we are proud to be recognized by HRC’s CEI reflecting Conduent’s collective progress toward delivering on its commitment to diversity and inclusion, while providing best in class service to our clients across the globe.”

As part of its commitment to workplace equality, Conduent advances its support for LGBTQ+ employees – and diversity in general – in many ways, including the company’s Employee Impact Group (EIG) program. EIGs are voluntary, employee groups that are organized around shared experiences or association to help contribute to a positive and supportive workplace.

“When the Human Rights Campaign Foundation created the Corporate Equality Index 20 years ago, we dreamed that LGBTQ+ workers—from the factory floor to corporate headquarters, in big cities and small towns—could have access to the policies and benefits needed to thrive and live life authentically,” said Jay Brown, Human Rights Campaign Senior Vice President of Programs, Research and Training. “We are proud that the Corporate Equality Index paved the way to that reality for countless LGBTQ+ workers in America and abroad. But there is still more to do, which is why we are raising the bar yet again to create more equitable workplaces and a better tomorrow for LGBTQ+ workers everywhere. Congratulations to Conduent for achieving the title of ‘best places to work for LGBTQ+ equality’ and working to advance inclusion in the workplace.”

The results of the 2022 CEI showcase how 1,271 U.S.-based companies are not only promoting LGBTQ+-friendly workplace policies in the U.S., but also for the 56% of CEI-rated companies with global operations who are helping advance the cause of LGBTQ+ inclusion in workplaces abroad.

Conduent’s U.S. HRC accolade comes on the heels of the company also being named by HRC as one of the Best LGBTQ+ Places to Work in 2022 in Mexico through its Equidad MX program. This recognition reflects Conduent’s pledge for LGBTQ+ labor inclusion, measured in various areas including policies of non-discrimination, equity of employment opportunity, organizational commitment, and public commitment across its operations in Mexico.

The HRC’s CEI rates companies on detailed criteria falling under four central pillars:

Non-discrimination policies across business entities,
Equitable benefits for LGBTQ+ workers and their families,
Supporting an inclusive culture; and,
Corporate social responsibility.

The full report is available online at www.hrc.org/cei .

Comparably’s annual Best CEOs for Diversity represents the top-ranked CEOs, based solely on anonymous sentiment ratings from employees of color on Comparably.com, a workplace culture and compensation monitoring site, in the previous 12 months ending in June 2021.

Thu, 16 Jan 2020 13:47:00 GMT

FLORHAM PARK, N.J., Jan. 16, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Conduent Incorporated (Nasdaq: CNDT) today announced the release of its 2019 Corporate Social Responsibility report, which showcases how the company is working beyond its business to help improve the communities it serves. This announcement coincides with “Proud to be Conduent Day,” a day designated at the company for supporting the communities where its employees live and work.

Conduent’s 2019 Corporate Social Responsibility report reinforces the company’s commitment to philanthropic efforts and highlights the progress it has made over the past year in strengthening its communities, empowering its people and governing its business.

“As a business, we deliver mission-critical services and solutions to create exceptional outcomes for our clients and the millions of people who count on them,” said Cliff Skelton, Conduent Chief Executive Officer. “Our mission comes with significant responsibility to society, and we are continuously working to empower our employees, strengthen our global communities and operate responsibly across every interaction.”

Highlights from the 2019 report include:

Volunteerism: 21,234 Conduent employees took part in 141 volunteer projects, donating over 49,000 hours across the globe, representing a 68 percent increase in employee volunteers from 2018.
Diversity and Inclusion: with employees in more than 20 countries, Conduent is committed to encouraging a culture of inclusion that is designed to create a strong and effective workforce, reflective of the clients and communities it serves. The company promotes multicultural teams, bringing diverse perspectives to problem-solving along with creativity and innovation.
Sustainability: through mobile payments to virtual permitting, the report includes a snapshot of how within Conduent Transportation, several of the company’s solutions are having a positive impact on the environment. For example, in Washington, D.C., Conduent’s dynamic pricing for parking helped to achieve a 10 to 15 percent reduction in drivers circling for parking, reduced the time to find parking by 3 minutes, reduced double parking by 55 percent, and increased space availability by 5 percent, all of which contribute to controlling emissions and traffic congestion.
Governance: updated policies and programs that reflect Conduent’s commitments to safeguard customer information, manage risk, operate with integrity and ethical values, and treat all individuals with dignity and respect. For example, Conduent has adopted The Institute of Internal Auditors Three Lines of Defense Governance Model to help ensure that roles and responsibilities are clearly defined to manage risk across the company.

Through its delivery of services and solutions to businesses and governments, the company also:

Processes more than one-third of the United States’ child support payments every year, supporting almost 5 million children;
Serves more than 30 million customers annually with government healthcare services, including approximately 23 million Medicaid and CHIP (Children's Health Insurance Program) beneficiaries; and
