CHICAGO, Aug. 18, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Hispanic Network Magazine (HNM) has named Combined Insurance, a leading provider of individual supplemental accident, disability, health and life insurance products, and a Chubb company, as one of the top diversity employers in the nation for 2017. For the third consecutive year, HNM included Combined Insurance on its Best of the Best Lists, which identifies organizations that embrace a wide range of perspectives, attract the very best talent and understand the demographics of the marketplace and its needs.

The company recently announced plans to hire 500 Spanish-speaking sales agents throughout Florida, Texas, Illinois, California and Arizona by the end of 2017 to serve the growing Hispanic market. Combined Insurance offers a best-in-class sales training and onboarding program for new agents entirely in Spanish.

"We are honored to be named a top diversity employer for the third year in a row," said Dennis Ontaneda, Vice President of Latino Markets at Combined Insurance. "At Combined Insurance, we value and seek top multicultural talent to join our organization and serve our increasing number of diverse customers."

Ontaneda has been with Combined Insurance for more than 20 years and has seen firsthand the value of cultivating a diverse workforce. Last year, more than 30 percent of the company's new staff hires were bilingual in Spanish and English.

Hispanic Network Magazine, now celebrating its 25th year of diversity, polled hundreds of Fortune 1000 companies for its 2017 Best of the Best evaluations. HNM is one of the nation's fastest-growing magazines, promoting the advancement of Hispanics in all aspects of education, business and employment to ensure equal opportunity.

Combined Insurance was founded in Chicago in 1922 by W. Clement Stone. With $100, a positive spirit and a vision to make the world a better place, Stone developed and grew the company into what it is today—still headquartered in Chicago with sales agents and managers throughout the 50 United States, Canada and Puerto Rico.
