Workplace Discrimination in Schools

Workplace discrimination in schools occurs when educators or staff are treated unfairly based on characteristics like race, gender, age, disability, or sexual orientation. This can manifest in hiring practices, promotions, or daily interactions. Such discrimination creates an unwelcoming environment, impacting not only those directly affected but also the overall school culture. It infringes on the rights of individuals and can hinder their professional development and job satisfaction. Addressing workplace discrimination is crucial to fostering a respectful and inclusive atmosphere where all educators can thrive and contribute effectively to students' learning and development.
