Apple's board of directors has recommended shareholders vote against a proposal from a conservative think tank to consider scrapping the tech giant's diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. The company emphasized its commitment to ethical business conduct and compliance with laws and regulations in its proxy statement.
The National Center for Public Policy Research (NCPPR) notified Apple of its intention to submit the anti-DEI proposal at the annual shareholder meeting. Apple responded by stating that the proposal would unduly restrict and micromanage its operations, highlighting its well-established compliance program.
