I am very pleased that EA has scored a 100 per cent rating and been recognised by the Human Rights Campaign in a year where the company has taken significant steps to remain inclusive,” EA’s chief talent officer Gabrielle Toledano stated.

EA has made changes to our medical benefits, been involved in LGBT events in our community and taken a public stance against the Defence of Marriage Act. EA champions diversity with a work environment where everyone feels welcome and can be themselves.”
