Summary:

Sirius XM scored an 95 on the 2023 Corporate Equality Index (CEI) from the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), a political stakeholder group. By complying with the HRC’s controversial demands, the company increases the risk of dividing employees, alienating customers and harming shareholders. The company covers transgender-related medical costs for its employees and their children and provides specific sexual orientation and gender identity-based benefits. It also uses sex and gender ideology criteria in employee recruitment, vendor selection, and philanthropic support. Sirius XM forces employees to undergo multiple ideological trainings. Sirius XM is part of the Global Alliance for Responsible Media, which aims to demonetize advertisements and suppress content that “vilifies” individuals based on sexual orientation and gender identity, discusses "debated social issues in a negative or partisan context" or spreads "hate speech". Sirius XM launched the Stand for Sonic Diversity campaign which advocates for companies to implement racial quotas in voice casting and the integration of DEI in all casting and scripting decisions. For these reasons, Sirius XM receives a Medium Risk rating.
