About the Disability Equality Index
关于残疾人平等指数
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.
残疾人平等指数已成为企业残疾人包容政策和计划年度基准的主要独立第三方资源，现在受到70％以上的美国财富100强企业和近一半的财富500强公司的信任。这些公司必须越来越多地考虑新出现的全球报告指令和利益相关者对社会和公司治理因素的期望如何影响其运营、文化、声誉和财务业绩。
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.
残疾人平等指数是一种客观、反思、前瞻性和保密的残疾评级工具，旨在帮助企业推进包容性实践。它是一项全面的基准，可帮助公司在五个评分类别中制定可衡量的切实行动路线图：文化与领导力、企业全方位准入、雇佣实践、社区参与和供应商多元化。参与的公司将获得零（0）至100的分数，得分为80分或以上的公司将获得基准年度 “残疾人包容的最佳工作场所” 荣誉。
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 10 th 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.
一项为期两年的全球残疾人平等指数试点项目的调查结果为分数基准的推出提供了依据，该基准于2024年向除美国以外的七个新国家开放。其中包括：巴西、加拿大、德国、印度、日本、菲律宾和英国。残疾人平等指数现已进入第10个年头，自2015年以来增长了近7倍，从第一年的80家公司扩大到2024年的542家。2024 年版共收到来自八个基准国家的753份参赛作品。
