Over the last decade, organisations in all sectors have made huge strides in supporting lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer (LGBTQ+) employees and creating an inclusive workplace.
To support this group, you need to create a gender-neutral environment that is supportive and encouraging.
This course provides a guide on how to make your workplace more supportive of LQBTQ+ people in your workplace, by rewriting your policies to ensure inclusive benefits and making the language used in your recruiting processes more inclusive.
The training includes ways to educate your employees to ensure inclusivity and provides a list of do’s and don’ts to support employee disclosures around their gender preferences. The aim is to create psychologically safe spaces for all individuals.
