Fifth Third Named to Newsweek’s America’s Greatest Workplaces for LGBTQ+
Fifth Third Bank today announced its recognition as one of America’s Greatest Workplaces for LGBTQ+ 2024 by Newsweek and Plant-A Insights Group.
“Fifth Third believes inclusion in the workplace is essential to living our Core Values,” said Chief Human Resources Officer Nancy Pinckney. “Creating a culture of belonging and connection where employees feel cared for and valued is critical to our success. This recognition reflects our belief that inclusion creates the opportunity for all to thrive.”
To be considered, participating companies completed a study that involved an assessment of publicly accessible data, discussions / interviews with Human Resources professionals, and large-scale confidential online surveys conducted among employees from U.S. companies that employ more than 500 employees in 2023 and that employ more than 1,000 employees in 2022.
“We are honored to receive this award, as it reflects the intentionally inclusive, diverse and thriving community we aspire to at Fifth Third,” said Chief Inclusion Officer Stephanie A. Smith. “We strive to provide an environment in which each employee feels valued, respected and understood. At Fifth Third, we pride ourselves in bringing our authentic selves and our best thinking into the workplace.”
Respondents provided insights and experiences on corporate culture, working conditions, and other aspects of their current employer and other companies they know. The study incorporates more than 223,000 employee interviews in the U.S. and collected over 1.5 million comprehensive company reviews.
"Embracing diversity and fostering an inclusive environment for LGBTQ+ individuals is not just the right thing to do, it's a business necessity for innovation and growth,” said Newsweek Global Editor in Chief Nancy Cooper. “To spotlight the companies that are taking meaningful steps to build a culture of inclusivity for employees of all sexual orientations and gender identities, Newsweek has partnered with data analytics firm Plant-A for the second annual ranking of America’s Greatest Workplaces for LGBTQ+.”
