New research by myGwork has revealed that eight out of ten Gen Zers are reluctant to join companies that have withdrawn their support for the LGBTQIA community. Only 5% of LGBTQIA Gen Z graduates and students believe that organisations are taking enough proactive action to be LGBTQIA-inclusive.
This new research coincides with the build-up to the fifth edition of myGwork’s annual WorkPride which is taking place from 17-24 June this year. This week-long event provides LGBTQIA professionals, graduates, allies, and employers the opportunity to advance workplace diversity, equity, and inclusion through a selection of virtual workshops. With 60 panels delivered by 250 experts, this year’s WorkPride is a vital space for improving LGBTQIA inclusion in organisations globally.
Celebrating myGwork’s 10th anniversary, this year’s WorkPride is aiming to create bias-free, inclusive workplaces everywhere. You can register here: work-pride-2024
myGwork’s co-founders Adrien and Pierre Gaubert said: “As we celebrate a decade of myGwork, we are immensely proud of the strides we have made in advancing LGBTQIA inclusion within workplaces globally. Our journey has been marked by profound moments of progress and meaningful collaborations thanks to our corporate and community partners, all of which have contributed to creating environments where authenticity is celebrated and diversity thrives. As we embark on the next chapter, our commitment to creating discrimination-free workplaces remains unwavering. Together, we will continue to champion inclusivity, empower allies, and pave the way for a future where everyone can work with pride, regardless of how they identify.”
