The HRC Equidad CL 2023 Report is now available, view it using the link below:
The HRC Foundation expanded its LGBTI+ workplace inclusion efforts in the region by partnering with Fundación Iguales — Chile's largest LGBTI+ advocacy group in 2018. The HRC Equidad CL: Global Workplace Equality Program was established to grow and promote LGBTI+ inclusion among Chilean companies and U.S. multinationals in Chile and recognizes businesses with the HRC Foundation's designation of “Best Places to Work for the LGBTI+ Equality” or Mejores Lugares Para Trabajar LGBT for their efforts to become inclusive workplaces. The Chilean-based initiative, inspired by HRC's annual Corporate Equality Index (CEI) — the national benchmarking tool on corporate LGBTI+ inclusive policies and practices — is HRC's first in-country program in South America and the second in Latin America following the successful model of HRC Equidad MX in Mexico.
Also participated in the survey in 2022
While 20% declared that they were in the process of having a formalized policy in place
Of that number 37%, were employees at a business that achieved the highest score
The HRC Equidad CL survey assessed major Chilean businesses and multinational companies based on three core pillars of LGBTI+ inclusion:
RaShawn "Shawnie" Hawkins, SHRM-CP (she/her), Director, Workplace Equality Program
Carlhey Bolz (she/her/ella), Deputy Director, Global Business Engagement
Emilio Maldonado (he/him/el), Implementing Partner
Seven years ago, Fundación Iguales saw a need in Chile to focus on inclusive workspaces, connecting with several businesses looking to promote this work. This is how Pride Connection Chile was initiated. Pride Connection is a network of local companies and organizations that seek to achieve equality in the workplace through practices and policies. In 2019 Pride Connection and HRCF joined in partnership to implement Equidad CL. Equidad CL is a benchmarking tool that provides data, recommendations, and best practices to expand the number of workplaces free of discrimination specifically for the LGBTI+ community.
