Vorys Earns Perfect “100” in Human Rights Campaign’s Corporate 2025 Equality Index
Vorys has earned a perfect score in the Human Rights Campaign’s (HRC) Corporate Equality Index (CEI) 2025 Report, making this the 16th-consecutive year that the firm has been recognized as one of the best gay-friendly workplaces in the United States.
The CEI is the foremost benchmark for measuring corporate policies regarding LGBTQ+ equality in the workplace. Businesses participating in the CEI represent more than 22 million U.S. workers.
Vorys’ score is a combination of four “pillars,” including:
- non-discrimination policies;
- equitable benefits for LGBTQ+ workers and their families;
- supporting an inclusive culture; and
- corporate social responsibility.
Vorys was one of only 29 Ohio-based businesses to receive a perfect score for the 2025 CEI. It was one of just five Ohio law firms to earn that score.
