This is a summary of Quad/Quad Graphics’ DEI initiatives, compiled from publicly available records using AI, with any opinions expressed being those of the AI analysis; this is not legal advice.

Under New York State’s Human Rights Law (NYSHRL, § 296), which prohibits discrimination and harassment based on race, gender, and other protected categories, Quad/Graphics Inc.'s U.S. Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives present a structured approach that could raise concerns about potential discrimination against White employees or applicants. Quad’s DEI efforts include non-discrimination policies, pay equity reviews, and Business Resource Groups (BRGs) like U.N.I.T.E. for Black employees and Somos Uno for Hispanic/LatinX employees, alongside goals to track employee engagement by race/ethnicity and incorporate DEI competencies into leader performance reviews. Hiring practices emphasize equal opportunity but use structured interviews, panels, and expanded recruiting to diversify candidate pools, which might be seen as prioritizing certain racial groups. While Quad integrates bias awareness into leadership training rather than standalone anti-bias programs, external sentiment on platforms like Comparably rates its diversity climate poorly (D, bottom 15%), suggesting uneven employee experiences. Quad’s Supplier Diversity Program, achieving an 18% increase in spend with diverse suppliers in 2022, and community investments like a $25,000 donation to VCU’s Brandcenter for diverse students, focus on underrepresented groups, potentially raising questions about equitable treatment of White-owned businesses or individuals. From an NYSHRL perspective, these initiatives, while aimed at correcting historical imbalances, risk scrutiny for possible “reverse discrimination” if they disproportionately disadvantage White employees or applicants in hiring, promotions, or resource allocation. The emphasis on race-conscious programs could conflict with NYSHRL’s mandate for race-neutral treatment.
