Gender Discrimination in the Workplace

Gender discrimination in the workplace occurs when individuals are treated unfairly or unequally based on their gender. This can manifest in various ways, including unequal pay for the same work, fewer promotional opportunities, biased hiring practices, and harassment. Women, non-binary, and transgender individuals often face significant barriers due to stereotypes and societal expectations. Such discrimination not only affects the careers and livelihoods of those targeted but also impacts workplace morale and productivity. Addressing gender discrimination is essential for creating a fair and inclusive work environment that values diversity and ensures equal opportunities for all.
