AT&T has once again been recognized for its longstanding commitment to diversity and inclusion across its global operations – most recently by DiversityInc, which named AT&T among its Top 50 Companies for Diversity in 2009. AT&T moved up 20 spaces in the 2009 rankings over last year – from 22nd to 2nd.

AT&T is also included on three of DiversityInc’s Top 10 specialty lists, ranking No. 7 among the Top 10 Companies for Recruitment & Retention; No. 1 among the Top 10 Companies for African Americans; and No. 8 among the Top 10 Companies for LGBT Employees.

This is the ninth year that DiversityInc has administered the Top 50 Companies survey – more than 400 companies vied for the honor this year, an increase of 14 percent over 2008. Last year, AT&T was included among The DiversityInc Top 10 Companies for Supplier Diversity because of its long history as a national supplier-diversity leader, which includes consistently expanding contracting opportunities for minority- and women-owned businesses.

“AT&T’s commitment to diversity and inclusion is so deeply engrained in our culture that it’s part of our DNA,” said Cindy Brinkley, AT&T chief diversity offi cer. “The leaders and employees of AT&T have understood for more than a century that a genuine appreciation of differences contributes not only to the culture, but to the bottom line,”

In fostering diversity and inclusion, AT&T seeks to create a better business environment, one that makes it an employer of choice, a preferred business partner and an important contributor to the community.

AT&T’s 50-state workforce is 44 percent female and 39 percent people of color. In 2008, AT&T spent $6 billion with diverse suppliers, representing 12 percent of its procurement base.
