FAIRFAX, Va, Jan. 29, 2021 /PRNewswire/ - CGI's (NYSE: GIB) (TSX: GIB.A) operations in the United States received a perfect score of 100 in its debut in the Human Rights Campaign Foundation's 2021 Corporate Equality Index, the nation's foremost benchmarking survey and report measuring corporate policies and practices related to LGBTQ + workplace equality.

"CGI is proud of a continued culture that promotes diversity, mutual respect and corporate responsibility," stated Tim Hurlebaus, President of CGI Federal.
