Abstract: Diversity, Equity and Inclusion has become a ubiquitous gimmick across the world especially in the field of human resources. It has become the most critical element in the modernday HR practice. With employees spanning from Baby Boomers, Gen X, Gen Y and Gen Z and the gender variants, organizations must ensure that their policies and practices should ensure the needs and expectations of the diverse groups. Each group brings their own unique perspectives and practices and their engagement and commitment to work depends on how the organization perceives them. As organizations aim to build a stronger workforce, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives play a crucial role in fostering a cohesive work environment. This paper explores the role of DEI initiatives in employee engagement by promoting workplace inclusivity, equitable opportunities and inter-generational collaboration. It further examines how DEI programs impact employee engagement and job satisfaction among diverse groups. The study was conducted in various manufacturing companies in Tamil Nadu and the research yielded a positive correlation between DEI and Employee Engagement.
