WorkplaceDiversity.com and ProGayJobs today announced the two companies have reached a joint marketing agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, the businesses will
work together on several initiatives to help employers recruit and retain gay and lesbian workers.
WorkplaceDiversity.com is the job search Web site for corporate recruiters who want to make a good faith effort to reach experienced diversity talent.
The site bridges the gap between companies that support diversity and experienced diversity candidates by providing one central location to post open positions.
ProGayJobs provides job postings from companies that promote diversity and provide a safe, open environment for gay and lesbian workers. The company enables employers to survey talent from the gay community, and jobseekers to
identify quality firms committed to honoring their individuality.
WorkplaceDiversity.com and ProGayJobs share a common goal of promoting diversity in the workplace, said Dan Honig, WorkplaceDiversity.com''s chief operating officer. More employers are realizing the benefits of creating an
environment in which diversity is both promoted and accepted. By working together, our companies can help recruiters with their diversity recruiting and retention initiatives.
This partnership will help gays and lesbians find employers that both support diversity and provide harassment-free work environments, said David
Bach, CEO and founder of ProGayJobs. An open and diverse work environment is good business and translates to increased profitability.
Being closeted takes a lot of energy Bachman said. When most gay and lesbian employees go to work, they want to focus on their jobs. Our aim is to help them find work environments in which they can put all their energy into
doing their job and not on being closeted.
