The annual Diversity Best Practices Inclusion index is intended to help identify gaps in representation within the workplace and creates a road map to drive internal change. To compile the 2020 index, Diversity Best Practices gathered data provided by each organization and measured applicants in three key areas: best practices in the recruitment, retention and advancement of people from underrepresented groups—women, racial/ethnic minorities, people with disabilities, and LGBTQ people; inclusive corporate culture, including leadership accountability; and demographic diversity for women and racial/ethnic minorities.
