Caterpillar, a leading manufacturer of heavy equipment, has announced changes to its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies.
These changes include requiring all corporate training to focus on business operations and seeking approval from senior leaders for external speakers and surveys.
The company cited mounting scrutiny of DEI initiatives and a desire to align its policies with its business objectives.
The move follows similar rollbacks by other companies like Molson Coors, Lowe's, and John Deere, amid criticism of 'woke' policies.
