Revised Stats Shows NYC Ad Agency Exceeded Its Diversity Goals

The New York City Commission on Human Rights has amended the results of its monitoring of the minority hiring practices of 15 New York agencies last year and now finds that Young & Rubicam exceeded its goals in the hiring of professional staffers such as copywriters. Previous commission data indicated that the WPP Group shop fell slightly short of its professional hiring goal, which was expressed as a percentage of total hires. Y&R's goal was 30 percent and the commission last month said that professional minority hires represented 26 percent. The latest data shows that Y&R actually exceeded its goal, coming in at 39 percent. Click here to read more.
