There needs to be a business case

Today was a company comms event and they brought up the diversity and inclusivity program that's running. They came out with the line "there hadls to be a business case or we wouldn't do it".

Now, I know companies don't do anything unless the finances are favourable (ie avoiding fines or increasing productivity) but I hadn't expected them to have the confidence to come right out with it.

What's "business case" mean in this context?

It needs to be shown that doing the activity (promoting inclusivity) will somehow make the company money.

Exactly. Straight onto how it was good because if the workplace is welcoming people are more productive rather than the workplace needs to be welcoming. End of.
