Hold US Companies Accountable for the Diversity and Inclusion Policies in the UK
Background
Investigate the extent to which US firms in the UK are rolling back their diversity and inclusion initiatives. Ensure that these companies are held accountable for upholding the diversity and inclusion standards mandated by UK law and that this is a condition of doing business in the UK.
Additional details
In recent months, we have observed a troubling trend where US-based firms with a large presence in London and the wider UK are rolling back or significantly scaling back their diversity and inclusion (D&I) programs. This shift in corporate policy follows recent executive orders issued by US President Donald Trump. If US-based companies are allowed to disregard these values and take advantage of the political climate in their home country, it could set a dangerous precedent for UK workplaces.
