IGT earns top score of 100 in Human Rights Campaign Foundation's 2025 Corporate Equality Index

International Game Technology (IGT) has maintained its top score of 100 on the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Foundation's 2025 Corporate Equality Index (CEI), a benchmarking survey and report measuring corporate policies and practices related to LGBTQ+ workplace equality in the US.

The 2025 CEI includes a record 1,449 participants and showcases how US-based companies promote LGBTQ+-friendly workplace policies in the US and abroad. The CEI rated businesses on criteria across four central pillars including non-discrimination policies across business entities; equitable benefits for LGBTQ+ workers and their families; supporting an inclusive culture; and corporate social responsibility.

"IGT once again achieving a top score in HRC Foundation's 2025 CEI showcases our commitment to building a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace where LGBTQ+ employees can thrive and feel safe, supported, and empowered," said Brian Blake, IGT Vice President, Diversity, Equity & Inclusion. 

"IGT believes that diversity, equity, and inclusion are critical to the value we create in the market. We are continuously evolving our policies, practices, and benefits to ensure IGT remains an inclusive employer for LGTBQ+ professionals, and this recognition from the HRC motivates us to continue fostering a culture where all employees feel valued."

IGT noted that its Office of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) has implemented a range of programs, policy and systems changes, and practices that promote diversity to make it a more attractive and inclusive employer. These actions include:

• Implementing more inclusive and equitable hiring processes, including utilizing LGBTQ+ job boards to post positions.
• Creating and supporting employee-led and executive-sponsored employee impact groups, including the LGBTQ+ group, and PRIDE with IGT, to work cohesively with IGT's DEI team and support the development of new programming and policies.
• Facilitating mandatory and elective employee training courses that help support IGT's DEI initiatives, including training on unconscious bias, cultural awareness, and harassment.
• Establishing gender transition guidelines to best support an employee who is transitioning as well as their manager, human resources business partner, or a dependent.
• Establishing and enforcing transgender-inclusive restroom/facilities policy and gender-neutral dress code policies.
• Allowing employees to personally select and share their preferred pronouns.
• Hosting career resource fairs for various communities, including the LGBTQ+ community, providing tools and opportunities to confidently approach today's job mark
