Risk Level:
Summary:
Sirius XM scored an 95 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, the company 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. Sirius XM forces employees to undergo multiple ideological trainings. Sirius XM was 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. The company was a partner of the HRC’s Foundation but does not discriminate against charitable organizations based on views or beliefs. For these reasons, Sirius XM receives a Medium Risk rating.
