LGBTQ+ Workplace Rights Strengthened by Federal Protections The U.S. Department of Labor is actively working to protect LGBTQI+ workers and end discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. A landmark 2020 Supreme Court ruling affirmed that LGBTQ people across the country are protected by federal law against workplace discrimination, marking a significant milestone in employment equality.

Corporate Equality Index Drives Workplace Inclusion The Human Rights Campaign's Corporate Equality Index 2025 demonstrates that equitable policies and benefits are critical to LGBTQ+ workforce inclusion, though employers recognize that additional programming and educational efforts are necessary beyond policy implementation. Corporate diversity and inclusion programs continue expanding to create comprehensive support systems. Sources: HRC Corporate Equality Index 2025, HRC Equality Rising Report

Federal Equality Act Advocacy Continues While significant progress has been made, federal law still lacks explicit non-discrimination protections based on sexual orientation or gender identity in all areas. Nearly two-thirds of LGBTQ+ Americans report experiencing discrimination in their personal lives, highlighting the continued need for comprehensive federal equality legislation.
