By complying with the HRC’s controversial demands, Tenneco 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 vendor selection. Tenneco forces employees to undergo multiple ideological trainings and uses its corporate funds to support controversial sex and gender ideologies and organizations. Tenneco is a corporate sponsor of the National LGBT Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC) and has lobbied for ideological purposes. However, the company does not discriminate against charitable organizations based on views or beliefs. For these reasons, Tenneco receives a Medium Risk rating.
