Cushman & Wakefield Corporate Social Responsibility Report 2018

Honoring our Veterans We recognize the opportunity that veterans bring as a skilled, quality talent pool for our business. To that end, we engage in deliberate outreach and apply supportive policies to encourage our veterans to find a home at Cushman & Wakefield. Our programs include:

LGBTQ+ inclusion Cushman & Wakefield has established a number of D&I initiatives, but we made significant strides in our LGBTQ+ inclusion efforts in 2018: our employee resource group UNITY now has multiple chapters across the U.S. and Canada, we strengthened employee and management training around LGBTQ+ diversity in the workplace, and we were among the first in our industry to implement preferred gender pronouns (for example: She/Her/Hers) in our corporate email signatures across our global platform. In recognition of these efforts, we received a perfect score of 100 on the Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s Corporate Equality Index, and qualified as a Best Place to Work for LGBTQ Equality.
