Between wars and political conflict, gender identity and pronouns, religion and climate change, there are a multitude of sensitive topics and world events where employees may hold and express strong views. Against this background, corporate leaders are grappling with time-sensitive issues and are under real pressure to respond.
TNON, Littler, Change the Race Ratio and the 30% Club explored emerging trends, issues for resolution and how HR business partners and ERG leaders can continue to drive impactful DEI strategies through periods of global controversy and uncertainty.
This webinar covered the following topics:
- What is our framework for addressing world events?
- Should we make a public statement, and, if so, how?
- What do we do if an employee posts controversial content on social media?
- How do we deal with DEI-related employee relations issues or complaints?
- What do you do if your ERG wants you to take a position on an issue and there is no corporate stance?
- How do we assess and manage risks relating to our existing DEI initiatives?
