  • The Trump administration has ordered some French companies with U.S. government contracts to comply with his executive order banning diversity, equity, and inclusion programmes, highlighting the extraterritorial reach of U.

The article discusses a directive from the U.S. government under the Trump administration, compelling French companies operating in the U.S. to adhere to a policy known as the "diversity ban." This policy, part of broader executive actions, aims to limit diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) training programs that the administration deems as promoting "divisive concepts" or "race or sex stereotyping." The order has stirred controversy, with critics arguing it undermines efforts to address systemic inequalities and promote inclusivity in workplaces. French companies, like many international firms, are now faced with the challenge of aligning their global DEI commitments with U.S. regulations, potentially affecting their corporate culture and international business practices. This situation has led to discussions on the implications for international business law, corporate ethics, and the global push towards diversity and inclusion.
