Southwest Airlines Ends DEI Practices Following America First Legal Complaint
Dec 3, 2024, 10:16 PM
Southwest Airlines has agreed to end its Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) employment practices following a federal civil rights complaint filed by America First Legal (AFL). The U.S. Department of Labor confirmed that Southwest will cease race and sex-based discrimination in hiring and promotions. This decision marks a significant shift in corporate hiring practices, prompted by AFL's legal action, and is seen by some as the end of 'wokeness' in corporate America, with meritocracy being reinstated as the guiding principle.
