Google has officially abandoned its diversity and inclusion hiring targets, attributing this shift to compliance with federal regulations established by President Trump. Previously, the tech giant aimed to increase representation of underrepresented groups in leadership roles by 30 percent. Following backlash against diversity, equity, and inclusion (D.E.I.) policies, Google, along with other major tech companies, is reviewing its D.E.I. programs and will not set new aspirational goals. Google's workforce demographics have shown slight improvements in representation for Black and Latino employees, but the focus on compliance may impact future diversity efforts.
Google will no longer have aspirational goals for diversity due to a shift in compliance requirements following Trump-era executive orders against diversity initiatives.
As a federal contractor, Google is now required to adhere to regulations that prohibit D.E.I. practices that were previously supported by the company.
