SUSTAINABLE WORKFORCE SERIES
Tuesday, 21st February 2023
As our society becomes more inclusive and diverse, it is important that we understand and support our LGBTQ+ colleagues in the workplace as fully as we can.
Join us as we review the challenges and experiences that LGBTQ+ individuals may face in the workplace, and provide strategies and best practices for creating a more inclusive and supportive environment for all employees.
We will discuss how to address and prevent discrimination, create a welcoming and inclusive culture, and provide support for those who identify as LGBTQ+. Our special guest speakers will share their personal experiences and insights on this important topic.
We hope that you will leave this webinar with a better understanding of the importance of LGBTQ+ inclusion in the workplace and the steps you can take to create a more inclusive and supportive environment for all employees.
