Diversity Series: Effective Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (DEIA) Planning – Session 2

To successfully build diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplaces, companies must understand the applicable laws, regulations, and best practices to avoid prohibited employment practices such as preferences, quotas, stereotypes, or over-generalizations. In addition, a focus on accessibility is a central component of today's DEIA programs. For federal contractors, DEIA programs should be developed consistently with affirmative action goals and programs,  
 
In the next installment of this two-part series, we will spotlight multiple best practices covering all aspects of effective program development across the DEIA landscape.

Throughout the webinar, we offer best practices and guidance for all organizations on DEIA program development. Craig Leen, a partner in the Labor, Employment, and Workplace Safety practice at K&L Gates and the former OFCCP Director, draws from his wealth of experience developing best practices and designing model DEIA programs, to let businesses know what they can do and what are the legal limits in developing effective DEIA programs.
