(Reuters) - Oil major Chevron Corp (CVX.N) expects to reduce the dominance of white males in company management during cost-cutting this year, upping the share of senior level jobs held by women and ethnic minorities to 44% from 38% last year, the company said in a statement.

Like most of its peers in an industry struggling with the collapse of oil prices this year, Chevron is cutting spending, consolidating business units, and has asked some managers to reapply for their jobs.
---
A spokeswoman for the company confirmed the details and said those selections were permanent and that the diversity ratio was expected to remain at around 44% at the end of all appointment rounds.

Long owned and run predominantly by white males, the oil industry has drawn criticism along with other parts of corporate America for failing to do enough to promote diversity.

It's probably a combo of COVID and George Floyd. Perfect storm.

In any event, property owners have the right to hire/fire at will. Natural law can be brutal...but that's our destiny.

So, what is the inflection point between the diversity of the oil industry and the evilness of the oil industry? At what diversity quotient does the industry cease to be evil?

Ha!

Good point.

I'm sure the SJWs are working on the problem right now.

No, no no.

the oil industry isn't failing right now because it's being attacked by "liberals". This is non-sense.

So if you are an underperforming white male you might be worried.
