The annual Corporate Equality Index, a diversity index that rates
companies on their treatment of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender
workers, is now out for 2009. The Index shows that transgender workers
have made major gains since the Index was first published in 2002,
moving from employment protections provided by only 5% of rated
businesses, to 66% of CEI-rated employers providing employment
protections on the basis of gender identity.
