3 Ways Companies Can Support Their Black Employees Right Now

Provide flexibility and mental health resources

With the onslaught of dreadful news, the past few weeks have been especially difficult for employees of color who are to come to work and leave their reality at the door. The expectation to compartmentalize and meet regular deadlines can feel particularly oppressive in times of upheavals, especially for those who are targeted.

The first thing managers can do, after listening, is offering flexibility to their Black employees and encourage them to take some necessary paid time off. To take it a step further, they can design a framework that provides free mental health support in the long run. For example, consider implementing a program that includes free or discounted therapy sessions, extra personal days and a peer-to-peer support network.

It’s important that these efforts are led by people of color and those who are part of marginalized communities. Their firsthand knowledge and experiences can help identify all the instances where racial discrimination manifests, and they are in a better position to suggest impactful solutions.
