Watch the Checkr Forward 2021 Progress Track session on effectively expanding DEI efforts.

Watch the Session

Recent McKinsey data show that companies that fail to prioritize ethnic and gender diversity are 29% more likely to suffer financial consequences. Even the nation’s largest employer—the federal government—recognizes the importance of DEI with a recent White House executive order outlining initiatives to broaden opportunities for historically underserved communities—including support for the 5 million formerly incarcerated Americans.

This executive order is one stepping stone toward creating a fairer workforce. During this session, our panelists will discuss why DEI should extend “beyond the color of your skin.” Join us to learn how technology can help businesses make more informed decisions about diverse talent, ways to advance inclusion during the onboarding process, and how to implement fairer hiring practices for all individuals.
