Workplace Pride’s comprehensive new white paper challenges internationally-active businesses to have a greater impact in non-LGBT+ friendly locations where they operate.
For years businesses have been coming to terms with the fact that their presence and activities around the world have an increasingly visible impact in the communities where they work. This comes with a responsibility to their own employees, as well as to the local legislative and cultural environment. This includes Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and other sexual minorities (LGBT+). In the wake of the #MeToo and Black Lives Matter movements, not to mention the global pandemic, employers realize that the workplace narrative has changed. Attracting and retaining talent from all backgrounds, creating safe workplaces for all, and being a good corporate citizen toward communities and clients, means that being silent is no longer an option.
To explore the background and practical applications of the White Paper in more detail, Workplace Pride is hosting a webinar with the author, Dr. Felicity Daly on March 11th, 2022 at 13:00. The webinar will be open to the public.
Interested participants should write to events@workplacepride.org, and mention “Workplace Pride Corporate Advocacy for LGBT+ Rights Webinar Registration” in the subject field. A link to the webinar will be sent to you closer to the date of the event.
