Fox Corporation Recognized as Best Places to Work for Disability Inclusion by the Disability Equality Index for Fifth Consecutive Year
17/07/2024
We are proud to be named Best Places to Work for Disability Inclusion' for the fifth year in a row, said Fox Corporation Executive Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer Kevin Lord. FOX fosters an inclusive work environment and champions the careers of our employees with disabilities.
Demonstrating its commitment to disability inclusion, FOX established ABLE, an employee resource group for colleagues with disabilities. ABLE is committed to breaking the stigma around seen and unseen disabilities, and supporting FOX colleagues, and those affected by them, through education, advocacy and allyship.
In addition to the recognition of Best Places to Work for Disability Inclusion, FOX has been acknowledged by other organizations for its commitment to diversity and inclusion.
DiversityComm recognized FOX as Top Hispanic, Black and Women Employer and Top LGBTQ+ Friendly Company for 2024. FOX was also appointed to the Military Friendly Employer list again this year and named a Military Friendly Brand . Additionally, FOX was rated a 4-Star Employer by VETS Indexes.
Launched in 2015 in the United States as a joint initiative of Disability:IN and The American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD), the Disability Equality Index is acknowledged today as the most robust disability inclusion assessment tool in business. Now in its 10th year, the index exists to help businesses make a positive impact on the unemployment/ underemployment of people with disabilities, while also helping companies create long term value for employees and shareholders and mitigate risk from new legislative requirements.

About the Disability Equality Index
The Disability Equality Index has become the leading independent, third-party resource for the annual benchmarking of corporate disability inclusion policies and programs, and is now trusted by more than 70% of the United States Fortune 100 and nearly half of the Fortune 500. Such companies must increasingly consider how emerging global reporting directives and stakeholder expectations surrounding social and corporate governance factors impact their operational, cultural, reputational and financial performance.
The Disability Equality Index is an objective, reflective, forward-thinking, and confidential disability rating tool designed to assist business in advancing inclusion practices. It is a comprehensive benchmark that helps companies build a roadmap of measurable, tangible actions across five scored categories: Culture & Leadership, Enterprise-Wide Access, Employment Practices, Community Engagement, and Supplier Diversity. Participating companies receive a score, on a scale of zero (0) to 100, with those scoring 80 or higher earning the distinction of Best Places to Work for Disability Inclusion for the benchmark year.
Findings from a two-year Global Disability Equality Index pilot informed the launch of a scored benchmark that opened in 2024 to seven new countries in addition to the United States. These include: Brazil, Canada, Germany, India, Japan, the Philippines, and the United Kingdom. Now in its 10th year, the Disability Equality Index has grown nearly 7x since 2015, expanding from 80 companies in its first year to 542 in 2024. Collectively, the 2024 edition received 753 submissions spanning the eight benchmarked countries.
