Hundreds of American companies have admitted to deliberately shunning white men for jobs due to DEI policies amid pressure to make workplaces more diverse, according to a survey. The Telegraph has more.
A poll of 1,216 of American businesses with diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies found that one in 10 avoid hiring white men altogether and six in 10 human resource (HR) managers put diversity over qualifications when selecting candidates.
The study, conducted by website Resume Builder, also found that one in three HR managers believe that “reverse discrimination” occurs because of DEI policies. Three-quarters suspect that these policies were introduced “in part for appearances”.
The survey comes after Donald Trump signed a series of executive orders that banned federal agencies and businesses with Government contracts from having DEI policies.
Last month, the Trump administration sent letters to France and other EU countries warning that the DEI ban applied to companies outside of America if they had US contracts.
Many male Trump voters believe that US society discriminates against them, recent studies show – despite white men being disproportionately represented in every state in high-paying jobs.
Although the UK branches of businesses such as McDonald’s and Deloitte have kept their DEI policies in place – despite their US counterparts scrapping them – HR advisers say similar tensions are evident in the British recruitment market.
Some diversity schemes have faced a public backlash in recent weeks amid concerns that white workers are being blocked from certain jobs.
The Conservatives this month proposed plans that could force bosses to justify “racist” hiring practices for white workers, after West Yorkshire Police temporarily blocked applications from white British candidates for its police constable entry programmes.
NHS England has also come under scrutiny after documents showed that managers were having to justify hiring white British citizens.
Under an amendment to Angela Rayner’s Employment Rights Bill, Conservative peers say that employers should be required to give those who lost out a chance to anonymously ask questions about the process.
Bosses would then be required by law to respond to the questions, justifying their decision.

Anyone who uses a vax pass is participating in medical apartheid and should be ashamed of themselves.
Well said, especially using one to get into bloody Luxembourg.
It’s really simple now. Don’t wear a mask, don’t take the vaccine. Ever.
While I have this comment box open, do you remember the classic movie, The Omega Man, with Charlton Heston. I keep thinking about that movie. And the moment, where his ally, the woman of colour (I don’t recall her name), gets back to his apartment, and unwraps her scarf, to reveal that she too has become one of the zombies/vaccinated, and that chilling line: ‘Matthias sent me’. If you know it, you know what I’m talking about.
That’s all I hear these days when I read about someone else who has succumbed to the mask/vaccine madness: ‘Matthias sent me’.
Ok, that’s it, carry on.
Meanwhile in Austria (according to something I heard of yesterday): Police out in masses everywhere to hunt for unvaccinated in shops and other prohibited places. They’ve brought this on themselves! How dare they exercise a choice with THIS situation in the hospitals!
[THIS situation typically being someone claims something really bad will happen in a few weeks if his conjectures should turn out to be true for the first time, although I have no specific information on that]
Thanks for the nice article.
Hands up anyone who knows where Adolf Hitler was born and spent his formative years.
Here’s a piccy of one of the architects of our misfortune entering a local temple of worship.
“If you want to have a strong immune system, don’t cover your face – just stop stuffing it.”
Perhaps keeping a mask on whilst eating will do the trick.
They certainly don’t deserve General Patton’s grave anymore.
Another depressing postcard. It does seem that, for the moment at least, England seems to be an outlier in terms of restrictions. But why? This doesn’t seems to fit in with the global capitalist plan. Maybe we just seeing a delayed reaction before the upcoming by-elections?
Fuck Luxem…….. fuck it, can’t even be bothered to spell it
Well that just confirms that my decision not to have a foreign holiday was the right one
Correct, even having a holiday in dear old Blighty feels foreign nowadays.
Carrots in baked beans for breakfast! Weird!
Perhaps they should rename it “the paranoid inn” instead of Novotel.
Lovely writing Russell thank you the good old British sense of humour always prevails.
I went there on a school trip decades ago. It was shut. Good article, especially the following observation:
“Public health zealots now run the world, enabled by craven politicians, an alarmist media and dubious Big Tech organisations. Having travelled to five European countries in the last 16 months, I’ve noticed the screws getting tighter, not looser. (So much for the miraculous vaccines getting us back to normal!) It’s moderate tyranny dressed up in nurses’ scrubs. The lands we thought the most civilised have enacted the most authoritarian controls. But then wasn’t this the case in the 1930s, when one of the world’s most sophisticated nations started a cataclysmic conflict?”
