You shouldn’t have to pause when it comes to ticking the box next to your gender or sexuality. But if you are a member of the LGBTQ+ community, the fear of prejudice or discrimination can make it hard for you to be your true self during your job search. Companies should make it clear what LGBTQ+ support they offer, from networking groups to involvement in awareness initiatives. And remember, your rights are always protected during the hiring process – and in the workplace. So fill in that form with pride – and let’s keep pushing forward. 🏳️🌈 #PrideMonth #lgbt #LoveIsLove #JobSearch #InclusiveWorkplace

LGBTQ+ representation allows employees to bring their whole selves to work. When individuals can be authentic without fear of discrimination, they are likely to be more engaged, productive, and satisfied in their roles. By ensuring LGBTQ+ representation, organizations can create a more dynamic and supportive environment where all employees can thrive. #theadeccogroup #LHH #PrideMonth #HappyPride #LGBTQ+ #TAGQ+ #RepresentationMatters

LGBTQ+ people are often subjected to hostile/non-inclusive work environments. Here are a few examples of how LGBTQ+ employees can be excluded in the workplace compared to straight colleagues👇 📚Source: McKinsey study #LGBTQInclusion #DEI #Allyship
Are you a true ally to your LGBTQ+ employees? 🌈 📊 A McKinsey study on active allyship for #LGBTQ+ employees found that only 22% of LGBTQ+ employees feel fully supported and included at work. This is a significant gap, and it's having a negative impact on LGBTQ+ employees' well-being, productivity, and engagement. The exclusion of LGBTQ+ people is often exacerbated when they have other marginalized identities, such as being a #woman and/or being from some #ethnicgroups. 💡 This is because they may face discrimination from multiple sources, and these different forms of discrimination can intersect and compound each other. #activeallyship #LGBTQ #workplaceinclusion #diversityandinclusion #intersectionality

Happy Pride Month! 🌈 Today marks the start of a month long celebration of LGBTQ+ identities, history, and achievements. You might notice companies updating their logos with rainbow colors (PG does not have a pride logo) to show support. In this video, we explore a critical issue many LGBTQ+ job seekers face: being told they're not a "cultural fit." We discuss how this affects the LGBTQ+ community and what true inclusivity should entail. Let's make sure our support is more than just a logo change—it's a commitment to real change. Check out the video below to learn more about how we can move from symbolic support to substantial action. #PrideMonth #LGBTQ #Inclusion #Diversity #CulturalFit #Belonging #LGBTQIA2S #InclusiveCulture #InclusiveWorkplace

When the organizations claim that we believe in DEI, but the only scope for certain companies to showcase is the gender ratio. How about recruiting disabled employees, LGBTQ+ to represent DEI departments, rather than allies & empaths for these type of roles? If organization wants inclusive changes to happen, executing this idea would make all sense & would add true value. #inclusive #disability #lgbtq #companies #corporates #organisations #DEI #thoughtworkscareers #microsoftcareers #googlecareers #google #synchrony #synchronycareers #Qualcomm #inclusion #wheelchairuser #linkedincareer #hrdepartments #hr

June is Pride Month and as such a great opportunity to remind employers of their responsibilities to their LGBTQ+ employees, and that's exactly it, a reminder, an opportunity for awareness for something you should be doing 👏 all 👏 the 👏 time! And something you should have in place is an LGBTQ+ Policy. " Aaah but we don't have any LGBTQ employees" we hear you say." ❌ You still need one. You may hire in the future and also how do you know? they may not have informed you (as is their right) So, where to get started? Check out our advice below and get in touch if you need further support with getting your policy in place. #EZHR #LGBTQ+Policy #HRSupport
