UnitedHealth Group (UHG) is the latest company to scrub its website of much of its DEI programming, in an apparent capitulation to directives from the Trump administration, which has threatened to investigate companies that practice DEI.

The company has taken down several DEI-related pages and blog posts, TechCrunch reported. UnitedHealth Group was previously transparent about specific actions it was taking toward diversifying its workforce, including “integrating programs that prepare diverse communities for the workforce,” and working with universities to source talent. In addition to deleting on Wednesday a webpage touting that the company is “committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion,” it changed its “diversity and inclusion” language to focus on “belonging.”

HR Brew also found that UHG took down its disability hiring page on Wednesday. While the company still has an accessibility blog post, it has removed information about its disability internship program and past recognition of being a best place to work for disabled people.

Joy Fitzgerald, the company’s chief diversity officer since 2021, appears to have maintained her role, at the time of this reporting.

When reached for comment, UHG would not say if it’s changing any of its DEI initiatives, or eliminating its disability internship program.

“We comply with existing and emerging laws while striving to support what is best for the communities we serve,” the company told HR Brew in a statement. “Our values of supporting a collaborative environment where we treat each other with mutual respect continues to be part of our culture and fundamental to expanding access to health care services.”

HR Brew is tracking the companies changing or eliminating their DEI programming. Follow along here.
