🌈 As we celebrate Pride Month, let's commit to supporting LGBTQ+ professionals every day of the year. While it's inspiring to see companies where employees feel safe being their true selves, the reality is that 71% of LGBTQ+ professionals have felt passed over for promotions or raises when not code-switching. It's essential to create inclusive environments where authenticity is valued daily, not just in June. Together, we can lift the weight off the shoulders of those who feel compelled to hide their identity. 🌟💪 https://lnkd.in/gEgdxYC5 #PrideEveryDay #BeYourself #InclusionMatters #LGBTQ+ #LTSthoughtleadership #leadingwithinsights #insightsoninsights #leadingthroughinsights #ltstl

Promoting LGBTQ+ inclusion in the workplace is crucial for attracting and retaining Gen Z employees. Research by myGwork revealed that 66% of university students and graduates would consider leaving a job if they couldn't be open about their identity at work. Young individuals are more likely to embrace their true selves if they feel their employer is genuinely dedicated to fostering inclusivity. Unfortunately, a concerning statistic shows that six out of 10 Gen Z employees face discrimination in their workplace or educational environment. Moreover, seven out of 10 would revert to concealing their identity if they didn't feel safe.
