And they’ve overwhelmingly lined up in support of equality: The Human Rights Campaign’s 2009 Corporate Equality Index rates a record-smashing 259 major American companies with perfect scores—up from just 13 in 2002. In one company’s words:

“Shell is pleased to have achieved a perfect score on the CEI-rating. This was a priority for us because it further demonstrates our commitment to inclusiveness in the workplace,” said Marvin Odum, president of Shell Oil Company. “A 100-percent rating helps us to better attract, recruit and retain diverse talent to contribute to our overall business success.”
