So, as part of out MPP, management will be penalized if more employees with “diversity dimension” leave their roll up (either voluntarily or involuntarily) at a greater rate than non-diverse people (white males, I presume)

Gee, I wonder what possibly could go wrong here. If a manager has, say, fifteen reports and they fire a Hispanic women, a trans male quits, and a white guy also quits, this could negatively impact our salary and rankings (which, in a displacement environment means risking our jobs)

So what type of behavior does that incentivize? Trying to retain poor or unreliable performers that are “diverse” while, at the same time, running out “non-diverse” people

This wrong headed thinking and way of doing business that will drive the wrong behavior, hurt moral and lower the talent level even furthers

So… what does “leave their roll up (either voluntarily or involuntarily)” mean?

They matter because ...PEPPER SPRAY!!!

"Not fully disagreeing with you, but how are recruiters and hiring managers’ bosses supposed to stop biased hiring managers when it runs throughout the entire company"

What evidence do you have that "it" runs through the entire company? In any case, they'd deal with one instance just like they'd deal with 1000 instances.

Responding to this reply on the previous thread which has been archived and is not allowing additional replies:

“If there are bigots that refuse to hire the best people, that's on the recruiters that are supposed to be watching over this cr-p and also the hiring managers' boss. It's not an indictment on the idea of hiring the best person, it's an indictment on specific individuals.”

Not fully disagreeing with you, but how are recruiters and hiring managers’ bosses supposed to stop biased hiring managers when it runs throughout the entire company, including our very own CEO. The idea to “hire the best person for the job” is a great idea in theory, but does not happen in practice. The truth is that many people have conscious or “unconscious biases”.

I’m not aware of any diverse employees who want an unfair advantage. They simply do not want to be unfairly disadvantaged.

You are aware that corrective action is confidential, right? So if an employee, be it a manager or anyone else, receives it, you wouldn't be told about it. In other words, you have no idea who is held accountable for what. If the person is actually terminated, then you can surmise, but unless someone violates policy and lets the cat out of the bag you still wouldn't know for sure.

I think this may be the first time managers are held accountable for their treatment of their employees. Hopefully this results in better management of all employees and identify the bad managers.

Diverse person left. Better lay off 2 non-diverse. But open a checking account for them on the way out...

My team is a heck of a lot more "diverse" (bigoted nonsense that flies in the face of MLKs ideology, but let's play along) than the CEOs. I don't need to hear about it from him. If he wants to penalize someone, he can look in a mirror and start there.

White male here. Can't we all just get along?! I cannot help that I was born white anymore than someone can help they were born black or brown. We are all equal in the eyes of our creator.

not just the good old boys network for the white guys. There are plenty of good old boy networks in this godforsaken place. "He-man women haters club" - still idolizing the Little Rascals.

Looks like membership in the good old boys club won’t be all you need to keep your job anymore. Pity the poor white male.
