“We are pleased that the HRC recognizes Brown-Forman’s
commitment to creating an inclusive workplace that supports all

identified coworkers and is willing to take a leadership role in

practices. A total of 889 businesses have been rated in the
2013 CEI, including the entire Fortune 500. This year a record 293
