All these Top 80 Diversity Award winners are outstanding leaders in providing GLBT-friendly and GLBT supportive workplaces for their employees worldwide.

(PRWEB) August 19, 2005 -- This Labor Day the Bi Men Network will honor the 80 Best Companies - the 80 major employers - all Fortune 500 corporations - as the best for bisexuals worldwide. The Labor Day Honors List is an annual round of awards made by the Bi Men Network to persons and organizations who have worked to make the world a better place. Last year the Bi Men honored 80 GLBT artists.
Nominations were accepted from the membership from past and present employees and suppliers of the nominated companies. The Awards Committee vetted the nominees. All finalists have outstanding workforce and supplier diversity programs in place. All the 80 Diversity Award winners - to be announced on Labor Day - September 5, 2005 - had high HRC rankings; had received other Diversity awards, honors, and public recognition; had GLBT employee groups and/or GLBT focus/marketing liaisons; and many of the Award winners have had to endure some backlash in varying forms for their leadership as regards GLBT matters and GLBT concerns.
The Bi Men Network is the world's largest social and support organization for bisexual men, bi-curious males, gay men, and bi couples. With over 1/4 million adult members on all six continents it is the major bisexual-focus association on earth and one of the ten largest GLBT organizations worldwide today. This is the first Diversity Award given by any bisexual organization to date. The Bi Men like to think of themselves as a major "B" in the GLBT equation globally.
