A #FixItSHRM thread.

From an article posted today on SHRM's website:

Some SHRM members, for example, have criticized SHRM for its public-policy work, such as its involvement in a White House jobs initiative or Taylor's acceptance of a White House board appointment..."
"...because they opposed SHRM's working with a political figure or administration that doesn't line up with their own ideals."

"SHRM is about policy, not politics; sitting on the sidelines while others who lack expertise try to shape workplace policy is unadvisable."
"'Here's our opportunity to be in the room' to effect change on issues like pay equity, the skills gap and overburdensome policies, 'and we cannot turn a blind eye to that invitation.'" ~ the current SHRM CEO

Good morning, good souls.

Today is the start of SHRM annual D&I conference. I wish all the attendees a conference that gives them the tools to truly do their work better.
However, please consider that the current SHRM CEO was selected by the current U.S. President to be a part of two White House councils. One of those councils--The American Workforce Policy Advisory Board--is specifically geared toward getting more people into the workplace.
Yet, this is an administration that has been hostile to marginalized groups since coming into power. For example, via its Muslim ban, violent mistreatment of thousands of undocumented immigrants of color, and its continued assault on LGBTQIA+ civil rights.
