The Human Rights Campaign has unveiled the 2007 edition of the Best Places to Work for GLBT Equality. Companies are evaluated based on factors including non-discrimination policies and partner benefits availability. Among the employers recognized are Austin-based companies Dell Inc. (well, Round Rock-based, but close enough) and Freescale Semiconductor Inc. Both companies have non-discrimination policies covering sexual orientation and gender identity and offer benefits for same-sex partners.
Way to be progressive, Dell and Freescale. Now, if only we could get more local employers to follow suit.
