Cinemark has an LGBT Liaison? by:
PghLesbian Sun Nov 23, 2008 at 15:55:43 PM EST By now, you've read about the letter on
365gay.com from Cinemark executive and openly gay man, Bob Shimmin. In the letter, Shimmin states that the company has an LGBT Liaison. So ... where is this person?
During my job interviews, I discovered that Cinemark has an LGBT liaison for community outreach; Cinemark provides domestic partner benefits for California team members; Cinemark hosts the annual Vancouver Queer Film Festival; and Cinemark works with the North Texas GLBT Chamber of Commerce as well as the Collin County Gay & Lesbian Alliance to arrange advance screenings for movies of interest to the LGBT community.
My partner participates in company and industry functions at Cinemark and is treated as my spouse by everyone here. In short, the corporate culture at Cinemark is inclusive and the customer experience at our theatres is inclusive.
