L’Oreal again in top ten of Thomson Reuters index

For the third consecutive year, L’Oreal has been named one of the world’s top ten companies by Thomson Reuters, from over 7,000 international organisations, on a set of diversity and inclusion metrics. In 2018, Thomson Reuters ranked L’Oreal 8th place ex-aequo with Natura worldwide, among top players such as Accenture and Novartis, all evaluated on a wide range of criteria in four categories.
The scores of Thomson Reuters Index are based on 24 diversity & inclusion measures that roll up into four key pillars: diversity, inclusion, people development and news controversies. Only companies with scores on all these pillars have been given a global score.
“L’Oreal has an ongoing and enduring commitment to diversity and inclusion. This new recognition rewards and fosters our efforts”, said Jean-Claude Le Grand, executive vice-president/human relations at L’Oreal. “We are convinced that diversity and inclusion is a powerful performance lever and a unique source of innovation”.
The Thomson Reuters Index evaluates diversity as a measure of gender and cultural diversity across management and boards, and diversity processes and objectives. Widely acknowledged as a longtime global leader in gender equality, L’Oreal promotes parity and equal pay throughout the company.
