Dismantling Transphobia in the Workplace

About this event

Being transgender in the workplace is often met with passive ignorance, offensive invasion of privacy, and blatant discrimination. According to one study, as many as 90 percent of transgender workers have reported some form of harassment or mistreatment on the job. These workplace abuses pose a real and immediate threat to the economic security of gay and transgender workers.

How can companies and organizations unlearn transphobic beliefs in order to foster a more inclusive workplace for transgender and gender nonconforming workers?

Please join the “Dismantling Transphobia in the Workplace” virtual event to hear from experts on ways to create a more inclusive and supportive workplace environment for the transgender community.

This is the second in a two part series. Register for Dismantling Transphobia in the Latinx Community here.

This event is sponsored by Twilio.
