Voya Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Rodney O. Martin, Jr., honored with John D. Kemp Leadership Award from Disability:IN.
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Voya Financial, Inc. (NYSE: VOYA), announced today that it has earned recognition as a “Best Place to Work for Disability Inclusion” for the fifth consecutive year.
Voya’s top score of 100% on the 2022 Disability Equality Index® underscores the company’s continued, measurable progress to lessen unemployment and underemployment of people with disabilities. Voya is one of 240 companies to earn 100% on this year’s index.
The Disability Equality Index is a joint initiative of the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD), the nation’s largest disability rights organization, and Disability:IN. The index measures key performance indicators across culture and leadership, enterprise-wide access, employment practices, community engagement and supplier diversity — and, more recently, the key performance indicators have measured innovative technology to advance digital and remote accessibility, mental wellness benefits, services for employees who are deaf and hard of hearing, and flexible work options.
“At Voya, we recognize that the disabilities community is a source of high-performing talent that brings unique insight as we continue advancing diversity, equity and inclusion across our workforce – enabling our teams to remain competitive and innovative,” said Rodney O. Martin, Jr., chairman and chief executive officer, Voya Financial, Inc.
Martin was recognized at this year’s Disability:IN Global Conference with the John D. Kemp Leadership Award — which reflects Martin’s personal commitment to ensure workplace inclusion for people with disabilities, and to diversity, equity and inclusion overall. The award specifically honors an individual’s or company’s measurable impact that improves employment opportunities for the disabilities community.
“Disability inclusion is a rapidly expanding aspect of corporate culture, and it’s gratifying to partner with 415 companies on the 2022 Disability Equality Index,” said Jill Houghton, president and chief executive officer of Disability:IN. “These top-scoring companies not only excel in disability inclusion, many are also adopting emerging trends and pioneering measures that can move the disability agenda from accommodation to inclusion and, ultimately, genuine belonging."
Voya’s continued commitment is demonstrated through several key efforts, including Voya Cares®, a hub of resources and community for those with disabilities and their caregivers. In addition, Voya supports its employees who are part the disabilities community, along with allies, through its People with Disabilities and Caregivers Council. The employee-led council plays an integral role in driving the company’s internal and external efforts that support the disabilities and special needs community.
