Microsoft is giving low performers the option to accept a payout and leave the company rather than be placed on a performance improvement plan (PIP), according to Business Insider, which has obtained an internal email outlining the company’s new performance management system. Microsoft's chief people officer Amy Coleman described the new system as having “clear expectations and a timeline for improvement.” A separation agreement that would be the equivalent of 16 weeks' pay is reportedly being offered to those who want to forgo performance management.

For only the second time in the past 12 years, the global percentage of engaged employees fell, from 23% in 2023 to 21% in 2024, according to Gallup's latest State of the Global Workplace report. For the fifth year in a row, European workers' engagement (13%) was lower than in any other world region. The primary cause for the global decline in engagement was a drop in managers' engagement. While engagement among individual contributors remained flat at 18%, managers' engagement fell from 30% to 27%. No other worker category experienced as significant a decline in engagement as the world's managers. Two types of managers were particularly affected: Young (under 35) manager engagement fell by five percentage points. Female manager engagement dropped by seven points. "Manager engagement affects team engagement, which affects productivity. Business performance - and ultimately GDP growth - is at risk if executive leaders do not address manager breakdown," said Jim Harter, Gallup's chief workplace scientist.

Two federal judges have restricted the Trump administration's enforcement of anti-diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) directives aimed at schools and colleges. The rulings, from judges in Maryland and New Hampshire, were prompted by lawsuits from the American Federation of Teachers and the National Education Association, among others. They argue that the department overstepped its authority with the directives, noting also that the restrictions curb academic freedom. Judge Stephanie Gallagher said: “The government cannot proclaim entire categories of classroom content discriminatory to sidestep the bounds of its statutory authority,” highlighting the administration's procedural missteps. Judge Landya McCafferty noted that the vagueness of the directives could lead schools to eliminate DEI programs to avoid penalties. The Education Department's perceived lack of clarity on what constitutes impermissible DEI practices has raised concerns among educators. The unions hailed the rulings as a victory for educational freedom and equity. The case will now proceed as the court considers whether to permanently block the Department’s directive.

Former Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers has warned that the Trump administration's efforts to downsize the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) could lead to a $1tn loss in federal revenue over the next decade. He said: "We are threatening the basis of our tax system, which is based on voluntary compliance," as he highlighted the potential for increased tax non-compliance. Approximately 20,000 IRS employees have opted for deferred resignations, exacerbating the agency's staffing crisis. Summers, now a Harvard University professor, noted that the downsizing could push many taxpayers to shift income to cash payments and engage in dubious transactions to evade taxes. He cautioned that the consequences of these changes could be severe, observing: "I don't think we've seen large consequences yet from all of this. But the risks are very big." The Budget Lab at Yale estimates that layoffs could result in a revenue loss of $159bn over ten years, potentially escalating to $1.6tn if non-compliance increases.

Lord Scott, a high court judge, has been appointed to lead the public inquiry into the murder of Emma Caldwell, who was killed in 2005. Iain Packer was convicted last year of her murder, 19 years after he was first identified as a suspect. The Scottish government initiated this inquiry to scrutinise the original police investigation, which faced criticism for not pursuing Packer sooner. Margaret Caldwell, Emma's mother, expressed her support for Lord Scott, stating: "I'm happy with this decision - I'm hoping things will get going now." Justice secretary Angela Constance stressed the inquiry's importance, stating it would "provide answers to the victims and survivors involved." Aamer Anwar, the family's lawyer, said. "For the last year there has been an impasse because the family wanted a judge from outside the Scottish jurisdiction. Today the family are grateful to the Scottish government and, especially, the new lord president, Lord Pentland, in reaching a pragmatic solution."

Democratic lawmakers have warned top law firms, including Paul Weiss, Skadden and Kirkland & Ellis, that deals they have reached with U.S. President Donald Trump to avoid being targeted by punitive executive orders may violate federal and state laws. The legislators have sent letters to nine firms, advising them that their agreements to support Trump’s preferred causes with pro bono work and to not pursue diversity policies in recruitment may contravene U.S. statutes that outlaw racketeering, bribery, extortion and other misconduct. Other recipients of the letters include A&O Shearman, Milbank, Willkie Farr & Gallagher, Latham & Watkins, Simpson Thacher, and Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft.

A senior Tesla executive has cancelled her attendance at a conference in Rome over fears of protests surrounding the carmaker. Tesla cars, infrastructure and offices have recently become targets of vandalism in several countries, including Italy, in response to CEO Elon Musk's right-wing activism. "Given the recent protests and violence against Tesla, and now in Rome, I've been asked to hold my external presence and travel . . . I won't be able to attend," Samantha Harris, Tesla's Global Sustainability Lead, explained in an email to the European Institute of Innovation for Sustainability (EIIS). She had been due to speak at Regenerative Futures, a conference planned in Rome for May 16-17 by the EIIS.
