Episode 18: How to Create Equitable Practices for Every Stage of Employment that Make Your People Want to Stay
It’s no wonder so many companies are increasing their focus on DEI&B. Research shows that employees who work in a high fairness environment perform 26% higher than those who don’t and are 27% less likely to quit. And with the Great Resignation upon us, keeping employees engaged and retained is critical. But despite widespread investments in DEI&B initiatives, only 18% of employees say they work in such an environment.
