Not sure if such accreditation really prove anything other than that a company is willing to jump through some hoops to get a sticker though. It's like PCI accreditation and other stuff like that.

Meijer, the grocery store chain, has a history of firing employees for being gay. For this reason, I see the HRC Equality Index as more than 'some hoops to get a sticker': companies go out of their way to improve the lives of gay people who work for them are awarded such distinction.
