  • U.S. CELLULAR NAMED TO THE DIVERSITY BEST PRACTICES INCLUSION INDEX

U.S. CELLULAR NAMED TO THE DIVERSITY BEST PRACTICES INCLUSION INDEX

CHICAGO (August 18, 2020)

Diversity Best Practices (DBP), a division of Working Mother Media, unveiled its fourth annual Inclusion Index, and U.S. Cellular was among the 98 organizations that earned a score of at least 60 percent and a place on the index. The index helps organizations understand trends and gaps in demographic representation, creates a road map to drive internal change, and identifies diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I) solutions to close the gaps. Organizations provided data and were measured 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.

“At U.S. Cellular we know that having a diverse workforce across all levels and functions of our organization is key to our continued success,” said Deirdre Drake, executive vice president and chief human resources officer at U.S. Cellular. “Earning a place on this Index is a sign that the practices we have in place have us headed in the right direction, but our focus on diversity and inclusion remains an ongoing journey as we continue to assess where we can shift towards a more inclusive and equitable environment.”

This year, 185 organizations participated in the Diversity Best Practices Inclusion Index, a 25 percent year-over-year increase. Completed applications were collected online from December 2019 through March 2020. Results reveal opportunities for all organizations to target their diversity and inclusion efforts for greater effectiveness.

“Diversity, equity and inclusion continues to be a topic of critical importance, especially in these times of heightened racism and social injustice,” says Deborah Munster, vice president, Diversity Best Practices. “The good news is that corporate America is paying closer attention to its D&I practices, and I am proud to recognize the work our Inclusion Index companies are doing to elevate their efforts to drive a more equitable future.”
