equitable workplace policies

Equitable workplace policies ensure all employees have fair access to opportunities, treatment, and resources, regardless of their background or characteristics such as race, gender, or disability. These policies aim to address and correct systemic barriers, fostering an inclusive environment where everyone can succeed. Unlike equal treatment, which provides the same for everyone, equity considers individual needs and circumstances to promote fairness. Implementing equitable policies helps organizations attract diverse talent, improve morale, and build a more just and productive workplace.
