Deloitte Final Big 4 Firm to Equalize Benefits for LGBT Couples

It's New Year's Day in Deloitte Land and with that comes the announcement that the firm will "offset the imputed income charged to its professionals who cover same- and opposite-sex domestic partners on their medical and/or dental plans," effective June 3rd.
