Riassunto:

Diversity at Work: The Business Case for Equity explains why you should strive for a more diverse and equitable workforce: not because you have to comply with legislation and not to feel warm and fuzzy inside, but because it makes good business sense.

Diversity at Work: The Business Case for Equity is a hands-on, practical guide to the why and how-to of striving for diversity and equity in the workplace:

• Creating a fair employment system for all employees
• Accommodating and valuing difference
• Hiring and retaining the best-qualified person for the job
• Basing all recruiting, hiring, and promotion decisions entirely on merit and equal opportunity
• Overcoming backlash associated with controversial affirmative action and employment equity legislation
• Successfully implementing a sound and effective diversity strategy in your organization
• Achieving improved bottom-line results
