B Lab UK takes equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) policies and adds a ‘J’ for social justice, using its “JEDI” principles to “make business a force for good”.
The non-profit is also promoting the Better Business Act — which it helped draft — that aims to amend Section 172 of the Companies Act 2006.
Campaigners from the Free Speech Union (FSU), in a report on B Corp, claim the move, if successful, could lead to controversial social justice and EDI policies being cemented in UK companies.
