Abstract	This research examines the business case for embedding diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) across human resource management practices, with a specific focus on ethnic diversity. Reviewing academic literature and industry reports establishes DEI, particularly ethnic inclusivity, as a performance enhancement driver. The paper highlights DEI implementation challenges, such as addressing ethnic disparities and unconscious bias, and showcases best practices across the employee lifecycle – talent acquisition, training and development, employee motivation, and retention. Study findings demonstrate how reconstructing policies, processes, and systems to foster inclusive cultures beyond representation, with a focus on ethnic diversity, enables organizations to unlock innovation and productivity gains from a truly diverse workforce.
