Finding an employer who is supportive of the LGBTQIA+ community is important if you identify as LGBTQIA+ or want to work for a company that prioritizes equality in their workplace culture.
A study of LGBTQIA+ workers by the Human Rights Campaign found that employee engagement declined as much as 30% in unfriendly work environments, and 10% of LGBTQIA+ employees left a job because the work environment was not accepting.* These findings highlight the importance of finding a positive and supportive workplace in order for you to excel at your job.
Being your authentic self when applying to jobs is often hard, but it can be especially difficult for applicants who identify as LGBTQIA+ since one-fifth have experienced discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity when applying for jobs in the U.S.**
In this virtual workshop, we share tips on how to find and land a job in an inclusive workplace where you can thrive.
Key Takeaways:
– How to find an LGBTQIA+-friendly workplace
