Companies are getting better at recruiting diverse employees, but there are still a lot of opportunities for them to tackle growing inequality, according to John Streur, CEO of Eaton Vance Corp.’s responsible investing unit Calvert Research and Management.
While almost all S&P 100 companies show some evidence of internal diversity initiatives and offer family-friendly benefits like a flexible work environment, only 25% provide a breakdown of their employees’ gender and race, according to a review earlier this year by the firm.
