Overview
- SAP has officially ended its goal of achieving a 40% female workforce, citing external legal and political developments in the U.S.
- The company will no longer include U.S. operations in its calculations of women in leadership quotas.
- Gender diversity has been removed as a criterion for executive bonuses, replaced by a Business Health Culture Index focused on employee well-being.
- SAP’s independent Diversity & Inclusion Office will be merged with its Corporate Social Responsibility department.
- The decision follows mounting pressure from the Trump administration's executive order banning DEI programs in U.S. federal agencies, which has also led other companies like T-Mobile US to scale back diversity initiatives.
