Does EEO legislation represent an additional cost to organisations? ?

Question

Are there likely to be any long term benefits? Provide examples.

I have to do an oral presentation on this question, what points do you think i should cover?

Answer 1

Yes, EEO leg. creates additional costs because of additional record keeping and databases required to track compliance in the event of an audit.

Longer term benefits are certain - a diverse work force helps ensure diverse thinking - when an organization is homogenized corporate group think is rarely challenged.
