Lyft launched its first ever diversity report, and other companies are following.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Major tech companies such as Google, Facebook, Uber<\/a>, Atlassian<\/a>, Apple and recently Lyft have committed to realizing annual diversity reports.<\/p>\n

In their first ever delivery<\/a>, Lyft proved 36% of their employees are female, while 18% are Asian, 1% are black, 5% are Latin and 70% are white.<\/p>\n

This information, according to the transportation mobile app, will hold them accountable and will determine their actions they take to make a difference to the people who come to work every day at Lyft.<\/p>\n

Although information regarding LGBTQ and disability employment is lacking on the final report, the company said it will deliver diversity and inclusion data points every year in a search of identifying new work opportunities.<\/p>\n

Following the diversity initiative<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Like mentioned earlier, Lyft is not the only tech corporation showing off information of its kind.<\/p>\n

Growth of women in Google\u00b4s workforce.<\/p><\/div>\n

Facebook<\/a> grew in terms of black employment, an adversity issue that had been haunting them since 2014<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Maxine Williams, Facebook\u2019s global head of diversity and inclusion, said: \u201cIt\u2019s a reminder to those of us working on [diversity] what we were able to do over the last 365 days\u201d (…) \u201cBut also a reminder of how far away we are from where we want to go.\u201d<\/p>\n

As for Google, data shows<\/a> that woman workers are on the rise, however, small improvements have been seen for minority workers.<\/p>\n

Google\u2019s overall workforce is 56% White, 35% Asian, 4% two or more races, 4% Hispanic or Latinx, 2% Black and less than 1% American Indian or Alaskan Native, and Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander.<\/p>\n

Here are the top companies of diversity in 2017 according to DiversityInc.<\/a><\/p>\n

Changes are rewarded<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Corporate Equality Award was given to Lyft in recognition to its efforts of innovating and ensuring a more inclusive environment, despite past problems<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Company\u00b4s standards were raised in September when Tariq Meyers<\/a> was appointed head of inclusion and diversity for the corporation.<\/p>\n

Lyft is one of the youngest companies to ever receive the award.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
