Caesars Entertainment earns top marks for disability equality

Caesars Palace is one of more than 50 properties owned and operated by Caesars Entertainment. Caesars Entertainment’s diversity, equity and inclusion strategy encompasses five pillars, including team members, suppliers and contractors, communities, guests and advocacy.

Caesars Entertainment, the largest casino-entertainment company in the United States, received a top score on this year’s Disability Equality Index (DEI), a joint initiative of the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD) and DisabilityIN. Up from 80 on last year’s index, the company received a 100, marking it as one of the best places to work for disability inclusion. The DEI is the world’s most comprehensive benchmarking tool to measure disability workplace inclusion against competitors.

“At Caesars, we are committed to embracing disability inclusion as a key facet of our overall diversity, equity and inclusion strategy,” said Tom Reeg, CEO. “We consistently review current practices concerning disability inclusion, and we’re honored to be recognized with a top score on this year’s Disability Equality Index. We know how important inclusion is, and we will continue to work toward progress for our team members, guests and the communities in which we operate.”

This year, Caesars Entertainment launched AVID, a new business impact group for team members across the company’s 50+ properties. AVID, which stands for Awareness of Visible and Invisible Disabilities, is a group dedicated to achieving inclusion and equity for those with disabilities by focusing on business development, community service, networking and professional development goals.
