Pride Now. Pride Forever.
Pride shouldn’t be just a month. It’s a movement. One that should keep going past the end of June. If true progress is going to be made, companies need to put Pride into practice all year, every year. That way, everyone in the LGBTQIA+ community who is in a job, or looking for one, can always feel welcomed.
We Need to Make Pride a Priority
The support for Pride continually grows from many companies and employers. Yet, LGBTQIA+ employees still face numerous challenges in the workplace:
- 35% have not come out in their workplace. [1a]
- 79% have experience of a mental health challenge. [2]
- 35% who are looking for work right now are worried about being harassed or discriminated against at work due to their sexual orientation or gender identity. [1b]
Take Pride Every Day
As a leader in your organisation, you can make it your company’s responsibility to build an inclusive environment for everyone, such as LGBTQIA+ employees. With the right tools and commitment, every company can make a difference in the workplace.
