EDGE Certification is the Leading Global Certification for workplace diversity, fairness, and inclusion centred on a gender and intersectional equity approach.

Officially launched at the World Economic Forum in 2011, the EDGE Standards and Certification help create a fairer place to work for employees, empower employers to attract, develop, and retain high-performing diverse teams, and deliver sustainable business value to the investor community. Through its Academic, Scientific and Global Advisory Councils, EDGE Certified Foundation brings further rigour, discipline, and thought leadership based on real-world experience to help create a world of equal opportunities, where men and women across their different gender identities, sexual orientations, race/ethnic origins, disability status, and nationalities, are equally valued and respected in all aspects of economic, political, and social life.

More than 900 EDGE Certificates have been granted to large organizations in 72 countries representing 43 industry sectors, across the three levels of EDGE Certification.

Join us for a 30-minute conversation with Chai Feldblum, civil rights advocate and scholar, who served as Commissioner of the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission from 2010 to 2018. Chai will share insights on the evolving legal landscape for workplace fairness in the U.S., and discuss the impact so far on diversity, fairness, and inclusion activities of organizations. The webinar will focus notably on:

• The impact of recent Executive Orders so far and what the current administration aims to achieve with them.

• Practical guidance for organizations on how to remain compliant with the law in the U.S. while effectively and legally continuing workplace fairness and inclusion efforts.

• Navigating restrictive interpretations from U.S. federal agencies (such as recent EEOC and DOJ guidance) that may mischaracterize lawful DEI practices.

This conversation will be highly relevant for global organizations with both U.S. and non-U.S. employees straddling divergent DEI regulations.

The session will conclude with a 5-minute audience Q\&A.
