Key Findings:
1 in 3 Romanian employees witness salary discrimination and unequal distribution of work tasks.
Over 50% of respondents expect employers to take measures to promote diversity in the workplace.
Common discrimination situations include favoritism in hiring, lack of response to complaints, and discriminatory comments or jokes.
Promoting diversity and implementing inclusion initiatives are essential for organizational performance and efficiency.
Conclusions:
Employers who do not encourage diversity and do not implement inclusion measures risk having toxic cultures that lead to employee turnover.
There is a critical mass of employees who associate diversity and inclusion correctly and expect to see effective D&I measures implemented by employers.
Allies for inclusion play a crucial role in promoting equality and ensuring that all voices are heard and respected.
Implications:
Companies need to actively address discrimination and promote diversity in the workplace.
Effective D&I strategies can lead to improved employee morale, productivity, and innovation.
Organizations should provide training and education to foster a more inclusive workplace culture.
