What can employers do to stamp out microaggressions at work?
Nikunj Upadhyay, our Inclusion and Diversity Director, discusses with People Management the impact of microaggressions in the workplaces and some tips for action organisations must take if they are to be truly inclusive.
A survey we commissioned with Censuswide found that discrimination in the workplace remains commonplace even in 2022, and that microaggression against marginalised groups greatly jeopardises inclusivity. The impact that this has on job satisfaction, wellbeing and productivity is huge, not only for the individual affected but for the organisation.
In this article Nikunj unpacks some of the issues associated with microaggressions and the approach Wates have taken to create a more inclusive organisation where everyone feels welcomed, included and connected.
