Stonewall has published its Top 100 Employers 2013, showcasing Britain's best employers for lesbian, gay and bisexual staff. Accenture tops the list; in second place is Gentoo and the Co-operative comes third. Goldman Sachs wins the award for Employee Network Group of the Year and Nationwide is named Most Improved Employer. Chief Constable Alex Marshall from Hampshire Constabulary is named Individual Champion of the Year. The Index is based on a range of key indicators which include a confidential survey of lesbian, gay and bisexual employees, with nearly 9,000 participants. This consistently revealed that the satisfaction levels of gay staff were highest at the top-ranking organisations in the Index.
