These individuals have the skills and experience and desire to work. Too often they are overlooked or screened out during the hiring process, simply because of their identity, background, and personal history.
It is imperative that employers challenge the status quo of their hiring practices and philosophy to mitigate bias and remove barriers to meaningful employment. This requires a shift in mindset, introspection, letting go of the fear of getting things wrong, and accepting that you don’t have all the answers.
In this report, you will find the most recent YouGov survey data commissioned by Indeed, alongside tips, advice, and actionable from some of the most progressive thought leaders in the diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging sphere. We hope you find it valuable and actionable and are able to reflect on the current state and the progress we can make toward a more equitable future. -

Fortunately, this is being reversed worldwide and in all areas, including business. The challenge is clear: diversify talent to create a work ecosystem where all parties can empower themselves and benefit.
