SHIFT HR Compliance Training recently commissioned a research report with HR.com called “HR.com’s Future of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging 2024 Revive the Commitment to DEIB Through Better Strategic Alignment Research Report.” (“HR.comReport”). Considering the recent attention in the media and online activity around HR, the workplace, and diversity in general, we want to take a few minutes to offer our perspective on some of the findings and supporting data.

The HR.com Report reveals that since 2023, we’ve seen a big jump in the number of organizations with more advanced DEIB. It’s interesting because this uptick is happening even as DEIB initiatives face more criticism due to political divides. The good news is that recent research shows that companies are putting more money into DEIB, funding a range of initiatives from broad systemic changes to local mentorship programs for managers. These investments and efforts likely contribute to the higher maturity levels we’re seeing in DEIB.
