In the Wednesday email, Google also said it will evaluate the need for annual diversity reports as part of a broader review targeting DEI-based grants, some of which "raise risk or aren't as impactful as we'd hoped." Separately, in its annual report, Google's parent company, Alphabet, omitted the phrase "committed to making diversity, equity, and inclusion part of everything we do and to growing a workforce that is representative of the users we serve," which had been in the reports since 202, the Journal added. In addition, the tech company said it is reviewing recent executive orders from US President Donald Trump and rulings from US courts to see what policy changes are needed to comply. On January 21, Trump issued an executive order ending DEI programs within the federal government. The order enforces long-standing federal laws that protect Americans from discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) - US tech giant Google is moving to abandon its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) hiring targets and practices and review its DEI programs, the Wall Street Journal has reported, citing an email to employees.
In the Wednesday email,
Google also said it will evaluate the need for annual diversity reports as part of a broader review targeting DEI-based grants, some of which "raise risk or aren't as impactful as we'd hoped."
Separately, in its annual report, Google's parent company, Alphabet, omitted the phrase "committed to making diversity, equity, and inclusion part of everything we do and to growing a workforce that is representative of the users we serve," which had been in the reports since 202, the Journal added.
In addition, the tech company said it is reviewing recent executive orders from US President Donald
Trump and rulings from US courts to see what policy changes are needed to comply.
On January 21, Trump issued an executive order ending DEI programs within the federal government. The order enforces long-standing federal laws that protect Americans from discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.
