Coca-Cola has expressed concerns that changes to its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies could negatively impact its business. The company recently made this warning in an annual filing, stating that a lack of diverse perspectives and backgrounds could disrupt its operations and affect its future success.
In contrast, rival PepsiCo has rolled back some of its DEI initiatives following President Donald Trump’s executive orders, which aimed to end federal diversity programs and encourage private sector companies to do the same. Other major companies have also announced plans to revise their DEI policies in response to the new regulations.
Coca-Cola remains committed to providing equal opportunities and fostering a culture of inclusion, innovation, and growth. The company believes that its diverse workforce is critical to its success and will continue to prioritize diversity and inclusion efforts.
