The largest human resources association in the world has decided to remove “equity” from its primary diversity program, sparking outrage among numerous talent managers online.
The Society for Human Resources Management (SHRM) announced that it will now use the acronym “I&D” — standing for inclusion and diversity — and will exclude the “E” from its former “IE&D” framework. The move follows it reversing the letters of DE&I following political pushback, and Supreme Court decisions in the US.
