JFF’s Impact Employer Talent Framework

Six levers contribute to one common goal: equitable economic advancement for all.
The framework is based on traditional components of corporate talent strategy—like recruiting, retaining, rewarding, and advancing talent—and it expands on these strategies to include people-focused benefits.
Each part of the framework (we call them “levers”) represents an area of the business that companies can focus on to achieve high-impact returns by changing or modifying current practices.
By implementing these levers—one, a few, or all six—you can begin your journey to becoming an Impact Employer and join the movement for greater opportunity, equity, and advancement in the workforce.
