LOS ANGELES -- 

Kilroy Realty Corporation (NYSE: KRC, "Kilroy") is proud to announce its inclusion in the Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index (GEI) for 2023. This year marks the fourth consecutive year of being named, a designation received since the index’s inception. As Kilroy improves its index rating year-over-year, the 100 percent disclosure score emphasizes the Company's collective commitment to driving action and advocacy and promoting equity within and across industries.

“We work hard to foster an equitable work environment. As we continue to grow and learn, our utmost priority is to refine our policies and to devote resources to advance transformative DEI efforts that empower our diverse team,” said Heidi Roth, Executive Vice President, Chief Administrative Officer at Kilroy.

The GEI comprises 484 global companies headquartered in 45 countries/regions and measures gender equality across five pillars: female leadership and talent pipeline, equal pay and gender pay parity, inclusive culture, anti-sexual harassment policies, and a pro-women brand.

Underscoring Kilroy’s extraordinary commitment to industry-pioneering ESG initiatives and policies, the Company’s membership in the GEI follows a groundswell of honors among the world's most accredited organizations. Within the last quarter, Kilroy received numerous top accolades and rankings, including:

  • The highest ranking in the GRESB Real Estate Assessment (Development, Americas), 2022
  • Listed in the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index for six consecutive years, 2017-2022
  • Included in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's National Top 100 List of the Largest Green Power Users, 2021-2022
  • Named one of Newsweek's "America's Most Responsible Companies," 2020-2023
