Introduction:<\/h2>\n

Diversity initiatives<\/strong>. What are they, exactly?<\/p>\n

They're the ideas, measures, and programs - such as specific hiring policies and ERGs (Employee Resource Groups) - put in place to create a more diverse, inclusive, and better-performing<\/a> workforce and workplace.<\/p>\n

To realize the benefits of diversity and inclusion - for instance, there's a 20% increase<\/a> in innovative thinking from demographically diverse teams - diversity initiatives need<\/strong> to be consistently reviewed<\/strong>. As the team at Project Include say:<\/p>\n

\"A one-off initiative approach simply cannot achieve systemic change; in many cases it does harm.<\/em>\" - Project Include<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Regular reviews also help to determine whether the diversity measures are working, need improvement, or need to be swapped for different initiatives altogether.<\/p>\n

This diversity initiatives quarterly improvement process<\/strong> will take you<\/strong> through the entire review process<\/strong>, looking at initiatives regarding mental and physical health, gender, race, LGBTQ people, people with disabilities, and parents and caregivers. You will note down the current initiatives in place, review them, and then scope out other alternative initiatives, should the current ones need replacing.<\/p>\n

For consistency, this should be launched every quarter<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n

Add basic information:<\/h2>\n
\n

The first part of this diversity initiatives improvement process asks for your basic information (name, email, and the date) in addition to the company's current D&I metrics.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Input your basic information<\/h2>\n
\n

Add your basic information (name, email, today's date) to the fields below.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Putting<\/strong> in<\/strong> this basic information<\/strong> will help to distinguish this checklist from previous and future checklists that are launched from this template.<\/p>\n

It will also be useful for the CHRO or CPO, as when they read through the review themselves, they can talk about the review with the person who completed the checklist afterward.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
