Trends in DEI Practices and Policies - shows that both management and employees see dramatic increase in DEI activities in the workplace. The study’s findings support what many observers have been saying: The social movements of 2020 and 2021, such as Black Lives Matter, provided an “a-ha” moment to business leaders. Instituting workplace DEI initiatives went from sounding like a noble concept to being a top-priority action item. Just look at the numbers. More than eight in 10 (83%) of the 656 responding organizations say they have been taking action on DEI initiatives in 2021, a 13 percentage-point increase from 2020. Of those 83%, 29% said they took their first action on DEI initiatives during the past 12 months. Nearly all (97%) of those DEI-active organizations have an established DEI strategy (56%) or are actively working on one (41%).Description
