Paramount scored a 100 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, Paramount increases the risk of dividing employees, alienating customers and harming shareholders. It also uses sex and gender ideology criteria in employee recruitment, vendor selection, marketing, and philanthropic support. Paramount forces employees to undergo multiple ideological trainings and uses its reputation, corporate funds, and political influence to support controversial sex and gender ideologies, organizations, and legislation. The company provides a benefits package for employees which covers travel/lodging costs for an abortion and transgender medical procedures for covered employees and dependents, including children. Paramount frequently uses its reputation to speak on political matters, promoted LGBTQ content to kids, and partnered with the NAACP to promote activists. Paramount Global funded Amnesty International and has donated $5 million to social justice organizations. The company is a corporate partner of the National LGBT Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC). Paramount Global donated to the Equality PAC and has lobbied for ideological purposes. Paramount opposed various state and local legislation intended to protect parental rights, girls’ sports, bathroom facilities, and gendered spaces. For these reasons, Paramount receives a High Risk rating.
