MILWAUKEE, July 13, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- ManpowerGroup (NYSE: MAN), the leading workforce solutions company, has been recognized as one of the Disability Equality Index® (DEI®) Best Places to Work, receiving a top score for its commitment to diversity inclusion in the workplace. The DEI® is a joint initiative of the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD) and the US Business Leadership Network® (USBLN®), honoring those organizations with a commitment to driving their organization's success through full inclusive business practices.

ManpowerGroup was one of 42 companies out of a total of 83 to receive a top score based on points awarded in four major categories: Culture & Leadership, Enterprise-Wide Access, Employment Practices and Community Engagement & Support Services. Companies receive points in any given category by demonstrating that they embrace a significant portion of the numerous best practices outlined in each section.

"It's no secret that diversity is good for business, and we're proud to support a diverse workforce across all our ManpowerGroup brands," said Kip Wright, Senior Vice President of Manpower North America. "Every day across the United States we put over 70,000 people into work, so by the nature of our business we feel privileged to be able to contribute to and celebrate diversity. Doing well by doing good has been in our DNA for nearly 70 years, and this recognition is a testament to the great work of our people."

As a global organization operating across 80 countries and territories, ManpowerGroup's employees, contingent staff, clients and suppliers are naturally diverse.
