Assurant Awarded on the Forbes Best Employers for Diversity 2023 List

Assurant, Inc. (NYSE: AIZ), a leading global business services company that supports, protects and connects major consumer purchases, has been named to the Forbes list of the Best Employers for Diversity for the fourth consecutive year. This prestigious award is presented by Forbes and Statista Inc., the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider. The 2023 awards list was announced on April 25, 2023 and can currently be viewed on the Forbes website.

The Best Employers for Diversity were selected based on a survey of approximately 45,000 U.S. employees working for companies with a minimum of 1,000 employees. The evaluation was based on three criteria:

  • Direct Recommendations: Employees were asked to give their opinions on a series of statements regarding Age, Gender, Ethnicity, Disability, LGBTQA+ and General Diversity in their current workplace. The recommendations of women, elders, and ethnic minorities were weighted higher than those in non-minority groups.
  • Indirect Recommendations: Participants were also given the chance to evaluate other employers in their respective industries that stand out, either positively or negatively, regarding diversity. Only the recommendations of minority groups were considered.
  • KPIs: Extensive research was carried out to evaluate how companies fared across a range of diversity-related best practices, such as the presence of resource groups within the company, the publication of diversity data, and the share of women in board and executive positions.

“Diversity, equity and inclusion remains a strategic priority, not only because it is core to our values but also because we have seen it drive better business outcomes,” said Francesca Luthi, chief administrative officer, Assurant. “We strive to continuously improve and strengthen the communities in which we operate. Our recognition as one of Forbes’ Best Employers for Diversity 2023 is an important recognition of our commitment and progress.”

“Our employees and culture are the foundation of our success,” said Alecia Bailey, global head of diversity, equity and inclusion, Assurant. “This recognition reflects our ongoing commitment to our diverse workforce and our continued efforts to attract and retain diverse employees across the globe.”
