New York City Comptroller William C. Thompson Jr. unveiled a proposal yesterday that aims to combat workplace discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender members of the business community.
Thompson’s plan calls on dozens of the country’s largest corporations to adopt an explicit nondiscrimination policy.
“We must work together to make sure that corporate America embraces acceptance and affords all employees the same protections, regardless of their sexual orientation and gender identity,” Thompson said at a press conference held at the 13th Street LGBT Community Center yesterday.
