Magazine to name Hyatt as one of "America's 50 Best Companies for Minorities" for the fourth consecutive year. In addition, the NAACP and DiversityInc.com have recently recognized Hyatt's efforts in diversity.

Hyatt ranks number 19 on the Fortune list, which is published in the July 8, 2002 issue. The magazine recognizes Hyatt as having the 3rd highest percentage of minorities among officials and managers, as well as the 3rd highest percentage of minorities among all employees. The rankings are the centerpiece of story package entitled "50 Best Companies for Minorities."

The NAACP also acknowledged Hyatt's diversity initiatives and programs by grading Hyatt a B- on the annual NAACP Hotel Industry Report Card.

Also, DiverstiyInc.com ranked Hyatt #21 in their listing of "Top 50 Companies for Diversity."

"Diversity is one of our company's Core Values. As such, it is a very important component of building our company's foundation.
