PIMFA
Last month, the FCA announced that it will no longer bring forward proposals requiring many firms to develop a diversity and inclusion strategy, collect and share data, and set targets to address underrepresentation. That said, the regulator still believes that DEI can deliver improved internal governance, decision-making, and risk management. Contrast this with the rollback on DEI initiatives by the US government with many firms like Google, META, and Adobe following suit and scaling back their diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts; where does that leave HR in the UK advice firms leading and managing their firms’ DEI initiatives?
In this session of PIMFA’s HR Forum, delivered by the employment team at Clyde & Co., you will get to hear from HR leaders who share their strategies and approaches to DEI and equality and weaving inclusivity into the fabric of workplace culture.
