As companies like Ford and Lowe’s eliminate DEI initiatives, they risk alienating LGBTQ+ workers, according to a new survey by the Human Rights Campaign.
This past week, Ford and Lowe’s became the latest companies to dismantle their policies on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), overhauling employee resource groups and ending sponsorship of Pride events. Both companies are also following in the footsteps of employers including Tractor Supply and John Deere by embracing another major change: They will no longer participate in the Corporate Equality Index, an annual report by the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) that evaluates companies based on how inclusive they are of LGBTQ+ employees.
