TIME WARNER CABLE LOGOTime Warner Cable (NYSE: TWC), the second-largest cable operator in the United States,  has been named among the nation’s “Best Places To Work” for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people by the Human Rights Campaign’s 2013 Corporate Equality Index.  This marks the first year that the company earns a 100 percent score – a 10 percent increase from last year.

The 2013 index, which looks at the policies and practices that impact LGBT employees across hundreds of large U.S. corporations, is considered a trusted benchmark for measuring the inclusion of LGBT employees. The criteria that were used to determine companies’ scores included looking at equal employment opportunity policies, employment benefits for workers and their spouses/partners, transgender-inclusive health insurance, public commitment and responsible citizenship.

“We can’t be more proud to be awarded such an important recognition by the Human Rights Campaign,” said Peter Stern, Executive Vice President and Chief Strategy, People and Corporate Development Officer at Time Warner Cable. “Our 100 percent score clearly exemplifies our commitment and dedication to diversity and inclusion in our workplace. We are honored to be in the company of peers who are equally devoted to the LGBT community.”

“The Ali Forney Center is thrilled to see Time Warner Cable receive this recognition for their support of the LGBT community,” said Carl Siciliano, Executive Director of Ali Forney Center. “The homeless LGBT youth served by the Ali Forney Center have benefited so much from the financial generosity of TWC such as the Learning Lab they are building in our soon-to-be-opened new drop-in center.”

“We are proud of Time Warner Cable for achieving a perfect HRC score,” said Chris Frederick, Managing Director of NYC Pride. “They have been a strong supporter of us and this further solidifies their firm commitment towards our community.”
