MEXICO CITY – Dec. 5, 2023 – The Greenberg Traurig Mexico City office obtained Best Places to Work LGTBQ+ certification from HRC Equidad MX for the fourth consecutive year. The firm received the highest possible score of 100.
The certification showcases companies that employ Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, and Queer (LGBTQ+) people. The results of HRC Equidad MX's Global Labor Equity Program in Mexico were published in early December. The certification is based on the following four categories:
- Adoption of non-discrimination policies
- Creation of a network of employees and allies or diversity and inclusion councils
- Internal LGBTQ+ training and educational best practices
- Participation in public activities to support LGBTQ+ inclusion
"For Greenberg Traurig Mexico, it is an honor and responsibility to achieve the HRC Equidad MX accreditation for another year. Our firm will continue to work together with organizations that are committed to the firm's values to foster a more equitable and inclusive society," said Leslie Palma, Erick Hernández Gallego, and Gabriela Palomino, shareholders and members of the Mexico City office's Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Committee.
In addition, last month the law firm received a score of 100 on the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Foundation’s 2023-2024 Corporate Equality Index (CEI) and the designation as recipient of the Equality 100 Award: Leader in LGBTQ+ Workplace Inclusion. CEI is the United States’ foremost benchmarking survey and report measuring corporate policies and practices related to LGBTQ+ workplace equality. This marks the seventh year the firm has received a score of 100 on the CEI.
