From: Richard Isaac Subject: Seattle gay-friendly corps (fwd) ReSent-Date: Mon, 17 Jul 1995 23:54:01 -0700 (PDT) ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 4 Aug 1994 13:10:35 -0700 (PDT) From: Richard Isaac Hi; I hope I can help you out with some info. I checked the Queer Resource Directory and found out the following: Local companies in the top 100 gay friendly corps: Microsoft, REI, Seattle City Light, Starbucks (coffee). Local companies w/non-discrimination policies: Microsoft, Aldus, USWest. Also the City of Seattle and King County, and the state government (and hence the University of Washington, a state school). Local companies w/domestic partnership policies: Microsoft, Seattle Times, Seattle Mental Health Institute. Also, the City of Seattle just passed one on Monday! Many local companies have gay employee groups: Microsoft, Boeing, Seattle Times, USWest, and the Univ. of Wash. Several have e-mail (ex. GLUniv. Employees: glue@u.washington.edu). I'm sure there are many other good companies and gay/lesbian employee groups but I'm not an expert in this area. Hopefully this will be a start. It is a liberal area, including most of King county. I think it is comfortable in general for queers here. Altho I do have a friend in a computer corp in the suburbs who says his company is not so friendly. So there are some of each of course, just like everywhere. * Richard Isaac __*_*___ \* * / Seattle *\ * ***\**/** rmisaac \/ @eskimo.com
