The NAIC Releases Its First DE&I Report
The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) releases its first Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DE&I) Report, today. The report focuses on activities supporting NAIC’s DE&I Framework, which was developed last year to drive change, and promote accountability throughout the workplaces at the NAIC.
The framework better supports the NAIC’s vision for DE&I, and serves as the blueprint for implementing the goals and objectives of the organization that have evolved from its internal strategy.
The 2020-2021 report focuses on activities that support the four key areas of the DE&I Framework:
- The workforce
- The workplace
- Supporting NAIC members
- Volunteering and supporting the communities NAIC employees live and work
"The NAIC recognizes that making progress with DE&I is a journey of cultural change,” said Evelyn Boswell, NAIC’s Director of Diversity Equity and Inclusion.” The report showcases how employees foster a diverse and inclusive culture where employees are encouraged to share their authentic selves."
