Diverse Populations

Trends in the Workforce There is an ever-increasing number of women, minorities, aging and persons of diverse lifestyles and ethnic backgrounds. In the 21 st century, nearly one of two workers will be members of today’s minority groups. Employers will gain a competitive advantage by capitalizing on diversity.
