Land O’Lakes scored a 75 out of 100 on the 2023-2024 Corporate Equality Index (CEI) from the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), a political stakeholder group. By complying with the HRC’s controversial demands, Land O'Lakes, a food manufacturer, increases the risk of dividing employees, alienating customers and harming shareholders. The company provides a benefits package for employees which covers transgender medical procedures for covered employees and dependents, including children. It also uses sex and gender ideology criteria in employee recruitment, vendor selection, and philanthropic support. Land O'Lakes uses its corporate funds to support controversial sex and gender ideologies and organizations. In April 2020, Land O'Lakes changed its logo to remove an image of a Native American woman in response to activist pressure. The company's CEO is a member of the Business Roundtable and signed its 2019 Statement on the Purpose of a Corporation, which promotes stakeholder capitalism over traditional obligations to shareholders. Land O’ Lakes CEO, Beth E. Ford, signed the CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion pledge, which includes a commitment to promote DEI through bias education training in the workplace. The company is a corporate partner of the National LGBT Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC). However, Land O'Lakes has not used its political contributions for ideological purposes. For these reasons, Land O'Lakes receives a Medium Risk rating.
