Aon’s Global Diversity initiative continues to grow
Aon’s goal for its global diversity initiative is to create a world-class magnet for talent that nurtures the background, skills and creativity of the company’s 43,000 colleagues around the world. Since 2006 Aon, one of the leading provider of global risk management services, has launched two global metrics for measuring success on its diversity objectives – more women in senior management positions within the company, and four regionalized diversity strategies – with the objective of embracing the client needs and talent imperatives of each community served by Aon, and to cascade these strategies from the executive level all the way down to the newest employee.
Aon was also named by The Human Rights Commission Foundation as one of 195 major U.S. businesses to receive a 100 percent rating in the Foundation’s 2007 Corporate Equality Index. The Index rates employers on a scale from 0 to 100 on their treatment of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender employees, consumers and investors. Aon’s rating can be found on the Human Rights Campaign website at http://www.hrc.org/cei.
