Intel offers rewards to anyone who can bring in women and minorities
Credit:
INTEL IS ADDING MORE FINANCIAL WEIGHT TO its drive to employ more ladies and ethnicities, and will reward employees who bring in suitable applicants with a bonus payment.
Like the rest of the industry Intel has a problem with attracting or employing ladies, it is not clear which, and, like the rest of the chaps, Intel wants to do something about it.
The firm has already announced a fund to drive technology industry minorities towards its offices, revealing a $300m investment and a five-year plan. Since then it has lost one of the most high-profile women in technology, president Renée James, but Intel goes on in pursuit of its own target figures.
