The proposal argues that Fair Chance employment practices can mitigate business risks associated with skilled worker shortages and reputational damage from unmet DEI commitments. It also points out the economic and societal benefits of including the nearly 70 million Americans with criminal records in the workforce. Adobe has acknowledged the importance of diversity with its 'Adobe for All' initiative but has been critiqued for lacking transparency in its current hiring disclosures. The proposal emphasizes that Fair Chance hiring can increase workforce diversity and suggests that tech companies like Adobe can benefit from this untapped talent pool to address the skilled labor shortage in the tech sector.
