Apple shareholders reject proposal to scrap company’s diversity programmes
Apple shareholders rebuffed an attempt to pressure the technology trendsetter into joining US President Donald Trump’s push to eliminate corporate programmes designed to diversify workforces.
The proposal drafted by the National Centre for Public Policy Research — a self-described conservative think tank — urged Apple to follow a litany of high-profile companies that have retreated from diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives currently in the Trump administration’s crosshairs.
