The Equity at Work Council
Our Vision
Workplaces free of inequities across the employee experience for all people.
The Equity at Work Council (EWC) is an interdisciplinary group of specialist thought leaders and practitioners working together to understand and develop the science underpinning diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEI&B). The goal of the EWC is to educate employers on evidence-based strategies to achieve more open, inclusive cultures. The council is comprised of a blend of academic, not-for-profit, and business leaders who share a passion and a commitment to eradicating all workplace inequities.
Research Partner
The Science of Diversity & Inclusion Initiative (SODI) actively partners with the Equity at Work Council to conduct scientifically-sound research on the root causes of inequities in the workplace. Together, we aim to create rigorous, evidence-based research and open source tools to stamp out workplace inequity.

Initiatives
The EWC has three primary initiatives:
- An annual research study to explore the multi-dimensional aspects of DEI&B at work
- An Equity at Work Index (E@W Index) to establish and benchmark the quantitative and qualitative drivers of workplace equity
- A series of open-source tools and resources that help organizations identify and overcome barriers to DEI&B.
