At Black Box, we are committed to fostering an inclusive workplace for all team members, enabling us to make Black Box the employer of choice for the best talent while driving excellence for our customers. We are very proud to announce that we have earned a top score on the 2022 Disability Equality Index® and have been named a “Best Place to Work for Disability Inclusion.”
Globally, individuals with disabilities represent over one billion people. Disability is a natural part of the human experience, and it crosses lines of age, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, race, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and religion.
The Disability Equality Index (DEI) is a comprehensive benchmarking tool that helps companies such as Black Box build a roadmap of measurable, tangible actions they can take to advance their commitment to disability, equality, and inclusion. Each company is scored on a scale of zero to 100, with those earning 80 and above recognized as a “Best Place to Work for Disability Inclusion.”
Black Box is among more than 400 corporations, including nearly 200 Fortune 500 companies, to utilize the DEI benchmark, which measures:
-
Culture & Leadership
-
Enterprise-Wide Access
-
Employment Practices
-
Community Engagement
-
Supplier Diversity
-
Non-U.S. Operations
The DEI is a joint initiative of the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD), the nation’s largest disability rights organization, and Disability:IN, the global business disability inclusion network, which collectively advance the inclusion of people with disabilities. Learn more at
