Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between diversity, equity, and inclusion?+

Diversity is the presence of differences among people; equity is fair treatment and access achieved by removing barriers; and inclusion is whether people feel welcomed, valued, and able to participate fully. This policy defines and addresses all three.

Does a DEI policy conflict with equal employment opportunity law?+

No. This template is written to supplement your Equal Employment Opportunity and anti-harassment policies and is applied consistent with applicable law and equal-opportunity principles.

How does the organization measure progress?+

Leadership and the board take responsibility for the policy and may set goals, gather feedback, and review relevant information — consistent with privacy and applicable law — to identify where the organization is doing well and where it needs to improve.
