| Story | Ending hair discrimination in the workplace: Dove & LinkedIn are on a mission to help pass the CROWN Act for more inclusive and equitable workplaces because #BlackHairIsProfessional. |
| Philosophy | Dove has been committed to supporting the passage of the Crown Act across the USA, which makes such discrimination illegal. While some progress has been made in some states, it has not been adopted across the country. The brand has teamed up with LinkedIn to address systemic problems in the workplace – from hiring practices to daily workplace interactions – that disproportionately impact Black women's employment opportunities and professional advancement. They co-commissioned the new CROWN 2023 Workplace Research Study which found that Black women's hair is 2.5x more likely to be perceived as unprofessional. inkedin will be providing free access to ten LinkedIn Learning courses focused on creating a more equitable and inclusive work environment, with a goal to educate one million hiring managers and workplace professionals by the end of 2023. Linkedin will be providing free access to ten LinkedIn Learning courses focused on creating a more equitable and inclusive work environment, with a goal to educate one million hiring managers and workplace professionals by the end of 2023. |
| Result | Dove will continue to drive awareness of The CROWN Act across platforms, encourage petition signatures, and support the passing of The CROWN Act to help end race-based hair discrimination nationwide. |
