Disability:IN award
Disability:IN, a nonprofit resource for business disability inclusion that counts more than 500 global corporations in its network, gave Lumen a 100 score on its Disability Equality Index (DEI) for its efforts at creating a workplace that emphasizes disability inclusion. The award was presented at the recent 2023 Disability:IN Global Conference in Orlando.
The DEI, a joint initiative with the American Association of People with Disabilities, is a comprehensive benchmarking tool that helps companies build a roadmap of measurable, tangible actions toward disability inclusion and equality. Each company receives a score, on a scale of zero (0) to 100, with those earning 80 and above recognized as “Best Places to Work for Disability Inclusion.”
India Sylvester, Lumen Chief Diversity & Inclusion Officer, accepted the award at the conference and was part of a panel discussion called Follow the Leader: Equipping Managers for Effective Disability Inclusion. Lumen’s status as a disability-friendly workplace is defined by company leaders who acknowledge and support diverse hiring and talent management practices.
“Lumen is led by people who aren’t afraid to share stories of times when they’ve faced diversity, discrimination, and stereotypical challenges in both their personal and professional lives,” she said. “Our leaders regularly show up and authentically share their truths with Lumen employees, which speaks volumes to how the company embraces diversity and the skills all employees bring to their jobs.”
