I am proud to announce that for the third consecutive year, Southwest Airlines earned 100 percent on Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s 16th Annual Scorecard on LGBTQ Workplace Equality!

 

The Corporate Equality Index (CEI), a national benchmarking survey and report on corporate policies and practices related to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) workplace equality, administered by the Human Rights Campaign Foundation. Southwest Airlines joins the ranks of more than 600 major U.S. businesses that also earned top marks this year.

 

The 2018 CEI rated businesses in the report, which evaluates LGBTQ-related policies and practices including non-discrimination workplace protections, domestic partner benefits, transgender-inclusive health care benefits, competency programs and public engagement with the LGBTQ community. Southwest Airlines’ efforts in satisfying all of the CEI’s criteria results in a 100 percent ranking and the designation as a Best Place to Work for LGBTQ Equality.

 

At Southwest Airlines, we put People first, and I'm proud to have a work environment where our Employees can come as they are and have their unique perspectives celebrated.

On June 24, 2018 in Orlando Florida, my daughter with a broken foot left her camera at the security check point. First, she was told to remove her boot and walk into the security booth, then back in the Wheel chair. We were delayed 4 times, and missed our flight in Baltimore with no assistance. We've tried for weeks to reach someone regarding our claim. However, to date, nothing. She needs her camera for school as she is a fashion design major at the University of Cincinnati. If you have recovered a black Cannon C, in a black bag with extra lenses and slim card, please reach out to me. Reward!
