February 4, 2026 - Saul Ewing LLP has received a score of 100 on the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Foundation's 2026 Corporate Equality Index, the nation's foremost benchmarking survey and report measuring corporate policies and practices related to LGBTQ+ workplace inclusion. Saul Ewing joins the 534 U.S. businesses that will be honored with HRCF's Equality 100 Award as Leaders in LGBTQ+ Workplace Inclusion.
"For nearly a quarter of a century, the Corporate Equality Index has put a marker down for businesses committed to inclusion and transparency for all workers. Now, more than ever, we celebrate them," said Kelley Robinson, President of the Human Rights Campaign Foundation. "No matter the environment, companies that communicate clearly and lead with transparency earn trust, retain talent, and strengthen their business. We are always here to collaborate with employers who want to foster a workplace where team members can bring their best selves to the office."
The results of the 2026 CEI showcase how U.S.-based companies are promoting LGBTQ+ friendly workplace policies in the U.S. and abroad:
- 98% of CEI-rated companies include sexual orientation and gender identity in their non-discrimination policies.
- 92% of companies provide equivalent family formation benefits for spouses and partners, including adoption, fertility and surrogacy.
- 87% of companies provide comprehensive healthcare coverage for all employees, including transgender employees, for medically necessary care.
The CEI rates employers providing these crucial protections to more than 22 million U.S. workers.
The 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,
- Outreach and engagement.
