DiversityInc<\/strong> has announced The 2009 DiversityInc Top 50
\nCompanies for Diversity\u00ae list. Johnson & Johnson was the No. 1 company this year for the first time. Others in the top five were AT&T, Ernst & Young, Marriott International and PricewaterhouseCoopers.<\/p>\n

In one of the only business upticks this year, 401 companies
\nparticipated in the DiversityInc<\/strong> Top 50 competition, up 14%
\ncompared with 2008. Aside from improving on recruiting and
\nwork-force diversity results that were already 28% better than the national average, companies that rose in rank also had dramatic increases in mentoring and employee-resource groups as well as double-digit increases in multicultural marketing and community philanthropy.<\/p>\n

"Competitive companies have switched from trying to move the
\nstatus quo to establishing a new one," said Luke Visconti, CEO of DiversityInc. "The past presidential election proves the power of the emerging majority; smart companies see increasing diversity efforts in an economic downturn as a way of beating less-adept competition that will pull back."<\/p>\n

The annual DiversityInc Top 50 Companies for Diversity listing, now in its ninth year, is an editorial process, entirely driven by metrics obtained in a detailed survey. Companies ranked in the listing demonstrate consistent strength in four areas: CEO Commitment, Human Capital, Corporate and Organizational Communications, and Supplier Diversity.<\/p>\n
