The Hanover Recognized By Newsweek as Most Responsible Company; Earns Top Score in Human Rights Campaign Foundation's Corporate Equality Index

WORCESTER, Mass., Dec. 18, 2023

Newsweek's award recognized companies with a strong commitment to corporate citizenship through their environmental, social and corporate governance practices and performance. The recognition is based on quantitative data from key performance indicators from corporate social responsibility reports, sustainability reports and financial reports, among others. It also included an independent survey that asked U.S. citizens about their perceptions of company activities related to corporate social responsibility.

The Corporate Equality Index (CEI) is a national benchmarking survey and report that measures corporate policies and practices related to LGBTQ+ workplace equality. The CEI evaluated companies based on their LGBTQ-related policies and practices, including non-discrimination workplace policies, equitable benefits for LGBTQ+ employees and their families, supporting an inclusive culture and corporate social responsibility.

"We are proud to be recognized as an organization that puts people first and governs its actions with trust and transparency," said John C. Roche, president and chief executive officer at The Hanover Insurance Group, Inc. "Every day, we work to bring our unique company culture to life, fostering a diverse, inclusive and equitable organization that empowers our employees to be their authentic selves. With diverse perspectives at the table, we are well positioned to continue to deliver on our promises to serve our stakeholders."
