Pride activities recognize the difficulties LGBTQ employees experience in their lives both within and outside the workplace. These may be in the forms of discrimination at work, harassment in their community, or limited rights in society. Activities like these open opportunities for your LGBTQ employees to seek and be provided with support.
Awareness and recognition of Pride in the workplace provide a safe and encouraging space for LGBTQ employees to share their ideas. It also brings about a feeling that their opinions are being heard and they have a community that appreciates them. When they become more engaged, they can contribute to their full potential in the growth of the business.
