DIVERSITY ELUDES TECH INDUSTRY

TECH INDUSTRY: DIVERSITY HIRING PRACTICES

In 2019, F4 launched the EQUALITY FOR ALL initiative aligning to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal #10.3. We began championing and focusing efforts towards equal opportunity for all by forging partnerships with business and policy leaders, advocating eliminating discriminatory laws, policies and practices and promoting appropriate legislation, policies, and action to make equal opportunity for all a reality. 

The mission for the Tech Industry's Diversity Hiring Practice research is to provide insight into the discrimination factors impeding efforts to build a culture of equality and a diverse workforce.
