Deep Release: The DiversityInc Top 50 Companies for Diversity List
Top 50 Information
In its sixth year, The DiversityInc Top 50 Companies for Diversity list is the most objective, empirical arbitrator of national standards for diversity-management success. A total of 256 companies participated, a 100 percent increase over the last three years and a 26 percent increase from last year. Of those, 48 percent were participating for the first time.
"Companies are realizing the importance and the credibility of the only business list for diversity in the marketplace," said Luke Visconti, partner and cofounder of DiversityInc.
Each year, DiversityInc improves on the methodology used to determine which companies are on the Top 50. For 2006, DiversityInc gave heavier emphasis to the most important aspect of diversity management—CEO commitment—and evaluated each company against its own industry and employee skills sets. In addition, new this year was the requirement that companies on The DiversityInc Top 50 Companies for Diversity list demonstrate consistent strength in the four areas the survey measures: human capital, corporate communications, supplier development and CEO commitment.
In human capital, DiversityInc evaluated retention across all racial/ethnic/gender categories, looking for consistency that proves a company has unbiased retention for all groups. In corporate communications, DiversityInc refined questions on diversity training, employee-resource groups, mentoring and multicultural marketing. In supplier diversity, DiversityInc, for the first time, separated data on women- and minority-owned businesses. And in CEO commitment, DiversityInc sought proof of the chief executive's direct involvement in diversity initiatives.
And the top five companies on The DiversityInc Top 50 Companies for Diversity list are:
Verizon
Consolidated Edison Co. of NY
The Coca-Cola Co.
Health Care Service Corp.
HBO
Survey Says:
Workforce Instability is Number One Fear for Human Resources Professionals
Companies across the United States are facing a growing problem. Their workforce is slipping away.
More than two-thirds of human resource (HR) professionals feel that attracting and retaining workers is the biggest threat to bottom-line profitability, according to a survey released today by Oklahoma City-based Express Personnel Services, an international staffing and human resource company with nearly 600 offices in 47 states and three other countries (Canada, South Africa and Australia).
As the economy continues to grow and the Baby Boomers retire, companies are facing stiffer competition for top talent. That doesn't bode well for employers. Nearly half (47%) of the responses from HR professionals indicated employee retention was their No. 1 concern.
Organizations that step up and boost their retention strategies will come out ahead, increasing productivity, profitability and employee loyalty, according to Melissa Elliott, Franchise Owner of Express Personnel Services in Hammond, the North Shore and New Orleans. In addition, companies that do a good job of retaining workers will become preferred places to work, resulting in people wanting to stay and a line of people wanting to come on board.
Managers have many tools in their arsenal to stave off employee desertion. Elliott added that recognizing those tools is one thing – knowing how to best utilize those tools is even more important.
"There is more to retention than offering competitive salaries, paid time off and insurance benefits," Elliott said. "By building trust, providing regular feedback, conducting effective annual performance reviews and giving appropriate rewards, supervisors and managers can lead their employees to a greater sense of commitment, increasing customer service, profitability and productivity."
