No

 @9FN6QT4 from Vermont disagreed…7mos7MO

Yes they should have diversity training so that we can better understand all people and where they come from.

 @9F73LDBLibertarian from Texas disagreed…8mos8MO

Mandatory diversity training as well as sexual harassment training should be taught to students in high school, not to adults. With that being said, why are we worried with businesses wanting their employees to understand that certain behavior will not be tolerated. If a company has a firm action in place regarding certain behaviors, and they want to train their employees so they fully understand what behavior is not allowed, then they should. Government should not be mandating what they are allowed to train in the workplace. I don't think that employers should be allowed to fire after one incidence if the behavior was not clearly stated of being allowed.

 @ISIDEWITHDiscuss this answer...1yr1Y

Yes

 @9KVB98X from Ohio agreed…1mo1MO

Everyone should receive this training because not all behavior is recognized and you never know what people are doing behind closed doors.

 @9GSR264 from Minnesota disagreed…6mos6MO

Diversity is about bringing voices to the table that have different perspectives due to their experiences. Teach taking turns and using your ears and mouth in proper proportion.

 @ISIDEWITHDiscuss this answer...1yr1Y

No, and mandatory diversity training should be banned

 @ISIDEWITHDiscuss this answer...1yr1Y

Yes, and all companies should require mandatory diversity training

 @ISIDEWITHDiscuss this answer...1yr1Y

Yes, and immediately expel any employees that commit acts of discrimination

 @ISIDEWITHDiscuss this answer...1yr1Y

No, diversity training should be encouraged but not required

 @ISIDEWITHDiscuss this answer...1yr1Y

No, only for employees that commit acts of discrimination

 @9L63K8K from Indiana disagreed…4wks4W

Everyone needs to take diversity training because sometimes things could be considered discrimination and not realize it.

 @9KVB98X from Ohio disagreed…1mo1MO

Some people never report when they are discriminated against so as a default everyone should get this training.

Yes, if they want to. But personally, I think this is a stupid trend happening. It's unnecessary by adding more attention to race your making people more conscious of race. An example is a kid said when he was in middle school he never once thought about race. but once he had crt all he thought abt a person while first meeting them was race. We shouldn't focus about race for anything we should just regonise that were all people and that we should be treated equally.

Encourage diversity, but if you have to tell your employees not to be racist, they shouldn't be employees.

  @Jcawolfson  from Pennsylvania answered…2wks2W

Yes, diversity training should be encouraged but only required for employees that commit acts of discrimination

 @9LJRK6T from Massachusetts answered…2wks2W

It's sad that people would even need diversity training to begin with, the fact that the government has mandated what's essentially lessons on how to be a civil human being is crazy.

 @9LHN4XC from Maryland answered…2wks2W

I think diversity training should be encouraged but not requires, and employees who commit acts of discrimination should be expelled.

 @9J9JP2K from Pennsylvania answered…3mos3MO

It is not the government’s position to tell private companies what to do, however, it should be transparent to consumers which companies provide diversity training and which do not.

 @9HYRZ55Independent from Arizona answered…4mos4MO

It should be up to the company. If an employee has chosen to work for said company then they must comply with the company's decision of doing the training or not doing the training.

  @ChaseOliver  from South Carolina answered…4mos4MO

Individual firms should be allowed to set their own policies, and consumers may decide which firms they will support with their dollars.

 @9F7SNL5 from California answered…8mos8MO

 @2KJR767Independent  from Virginia answered…8mos8MO

No. It should be recommeneded but the focus should be on emotional intelligence and unserstandkng bias versus driving wedges based on perceived discrimination.

 @9DJHLM5 from Florida answered…8mos8MO

Yes, companies shouldn’t be told how to operate by the Government unless they are conducting illegal business or limiting speech

 @9DJBM33 from Alabama answered…8mos8MO

No, employers should simply publish clear guidelines and company policies on actions

 @9DJ83N6Socialist from Nebraska answered…8mos8MO

No, current diversity training has been scientifically shown to cause worse outcomes in the workplace.

 @9D98WZR from California answered…9mos9MO

 @9D68MKD from Ohio answered…9mos9MO

  @YauntiCommunist from New York answered…9mos9MO

Yes, abolish private property and require all workers to take diversity training and a requirement of orientation

 @9D53XZH from Florida answered…9mos9MO

Yes, because the government should have very limited regulation on private companies. The free market should dictate what training is profitable.

 @9CZMFWDfrom Washington answered…9mos9MO

Ideally as required, should teach common decency instead. Especially at lower levels of competency. It is in senior managements best interest to have a workplace that is welcoming to the broader public.

 @9C9RV25 from Washington answered…11mos11MO

 @9BLNTKV from Kansas answered…1yr1Y

Neutral, but diversity training should be heavily encouraged with incentives

 @9L7Q9V3 from North Carolina answered…4wks4W

Yes, but only if such training prioritizes racial cooperation and understanding instead of preaching critical race theory

 @9K8HC43 from North Carolina answered…2mos2MO

The goverment should have no say in this matter, the only day they have is where federal employees receive training.

 @9K24XZX from Connecticut answered…2mos2MO

I personally don't believe in diversity training, but the government should not have any role in mandating any diversity standards.

 @9JXVC9R from California answered…2mos2MO

No, diversity training is a detriment and is better done by vacations to different parts of the world. A trip to Japan, Peru, Botswana, or Bangladesh will do far more to make one appreciate diversity than a seminar telling people to tolerate the alien.

 @9JW87V6 from North Carolina answered…2mos2MO

Yes, but only if the focus is on racial cooperation and understanding instead of critical race theory

  @9JL9Q8N  from North Carolina answered…3mos3MO

No, this practice is divisive, choosing to focus on what makes us different from each other - ceding even more "power" to those that have been protected/privileged (legally/programs - affirmative action). We should be focused on values that we can unite to support and that makes companies succeed - good work.

 @9JDPRPN from Alaska answered…3mos3MO

No, everyone is equal no matter who they are and diversity training is kinda wrong to be honest and it's up to the employee's behavior.

 @9HJFQD8 from Missouri answered…5mos5MO

No, diversity training doesn't alter minds of discriminatory peoples and augments any trace of an antiquated culture by clinging onto a supposedly bad status quo, preventing growth

 @9HJFHDT from Ohio answered…5mos5MO

No, you should hire the best for the job, not just to hit all of the check marks for your whole employee list.

 @9HB5MKV from North Carolina answered…5mos5MO

Yes, but only if the training focuses on racial cooperation and understanding and not critical race theory where one race is more privileged or disadvantaged compared to another

 @9H5VH62 from North Carolina answered…5mos5MO

Yes, but the training should focus on racial understanding and cooperation instead of promoting the idea that one race is inherently disadvantaged or privileged compared to another.
