FedEx to Offer DP Benefits
By Advocate.com Editors
Shipping giant FedEx announced that it will begin offering health insurance benefits to employees’ same-sex domestic partners, The [Memphis, Tenn.] Commercial Appealreports.
The benefits will kick in for the Memphis-based company beginning January 1, 2011.
The move will most likely change FedEx’s ranking on the Human Rights Campaign’s Corporate Equality Index—currently 70% out of a possible 100. Rival UPS, which has offered same-sex DP benefits since 2004, has a perfect 100% rating from HRC.
