Policy Area: Workplace Equity

A diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace is more important than ever. Emily M. Dickens, SHRM’s corporate secretary, chief of staff and head of Government Affairs, was a guest on the SHRM Career Compass podcast, where she spoke with SHRM Foundation board member Camille Chang Gilmore on creating an inclusive, positive workplace culture.

Last week, SHRM launched the Together Forward @Work platform, a call to action to drive racial inequity out of America’s workplaces.

Dickens recently participated in a webcast with the National Foundation for Women Legislators. The webinar focused on the importance of workplace culture as we navigate returning to the office and how SHRM, employers across the globe and policymakers can work together to create impactful change as businesses adjust to the “next normal.”
