diversity goals
Representation hiring benchmarks
Diversity goals are targets organizations set for increasing representation of underrepresented groups—typically by race, gender, ethnicity, or other demographic categories.
The term appears in hiring, education, and corporate contexts: The company announced new diversity goals for leadership positions.
Critics see them as quotas by another name; supporters view them as necessary benchmarks for addressing historical imbalances.
