Gay friendly workplaces

Equality and Justice group Stonewall have launched the Workplace Equality Index for 2008, which showcases the the UK’s top 100 employers for gay people.
The top employer for 2008 is Nacro, the national crime reduction charity. IBM and Lloyds TSB also made the top 10. You can see the full list here.
The top 100 employers were ranked according to criteria including implementation of effective equality policies to practical demonstration of good practice in recruitment and mentoring and how they engage with lesbian and gay staff, customers and service users.
240 employers entered the 2008 Index and had to obtain a minimum score of 71 per cent to be placed in the top 100. You can apply on Stonewall’s website to become a Diversity Champion here.
