Out Leadership 2021 LGBTQ+ State Business Climate Index
July 16, 2021
Out Leadership has released its State LGBTQ+ Business Climate Index for 2021 and accompanying U.S. State CEO Business Briefs.
The 3rd annual “State LGBTQ+ Business Climate Index” is being published against a backdrop of sustained attacks on transgender and LGBTQ+ rights in state legislatures around the US.
The State LGBTQ+ Business Climate Index gives each state a score out of 100 points, based on 20 carefully selected and nuanced markers assessing LGBT+ people’s lived experiences across 5 broader categories including Legal and Nondiscrimination Protections, Youth and Family Support, Political & Religious Attitudes, Health Access and Safety, Work Environment and Employment.
The 2021 Index results reveal some significant shifts, driven largely by the landmark win for LGBTQ+ workplace equality (Clayton Vs Bostock) at the Supreme Court. At the same time, the coordinated legislative pushback against LGBTQ+ rights on a state level have caused some states to fall farther behind when it comes to protecting their LGBTQ+ citizens.
