Overview

LGBTQ+ Inclusion Training

Inclusion in the workplace is about welcoming individuals for who they are and the talents they bring to the organization. And that includes individuals from the LGBTQ+ community. LGBTQ+ is an acronym for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer, with a “+” sign to recognize the spectrum of sexual orientations and gender identities.

While progress has been made in raising awareness of the benefits of a more diverse and inclusive workplace, 75% of LGBTQ+ employees surveyed reported experiencing negative day-to-day interactions at work related to their LGBTQ+ identity.

Ensuring that policies, practices and training are inclusive of LGBTQ+ employees strengthens workplace culture and fosters a psychologically safe environment in which all employees feel they can bring their authentic selves to work, resulting in more creative thinking and higher engagement and productivity.

From a legal and compliance perspective, employees are protected against workplace discrimination and harassment based on their sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression. This means that important employment decisions — such as recruiting and hiring — can’t be based on these protected characteristics and that people can’t be discriminated against or harassed at work because of them.
