For the second year in a row, the Human Rights Campaign has awarded us the top rating of 100% on its Corporate Equality Index 2014. This score is based on the HRC’s evaluation of fair and inclusive workplace policies across large U.S. employers. Businesses that achieve this score are recognized as “Best Places to Work for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Equality.”

Thomson Reuters is one of 303 companies (out of 934 evaluated) to earn this distinction. “We’re honored to be recognized again by the HRC for our continued efforts,” said Jane Moran, Chief Information Officer for Technology and executive co-sponsor of our Pride at Work group. …

what stories have you heard?

I work in IT. Over my (long, and getting longer...) career, I've been asked to participate in the firing process for a couple dozen employees. In every case, the decision has been made by the time I'm brought in, I've just been asked to verify computer usage, and abuse.

With two truly bizarre execeptions, every other case I've been brought in on has involved a gay man. Usually it's for pornography of some sort, but there were a short handful of cases where the guys were either soliciting online, or prostituting themselves online at work and, erm, "completing the deal" on their lunch hour.

This says something. I try hard not to think about what.

homosexuals are defined, and define themselves, solely by their sexuality. Its a very low standard by which to sum-up the purpose of one’s life, but oddly, homosexuals actually prefer it and pursue it.

so in that sense, I’m not surprised by what you say.

That’s wonderful.

How about being an actual news service now. Instead of a left wing propaganda outfit.
