Fostering the value of diversity in organisations during the pandemic period

扫码查看
Diversity brings significant value to today's business organisations. One of the primary objectives for many business organisations, therefore, is to focus more closely on the issues involved with these changing organisational concerns. Workplace diversity, alongside generating value through resonance with a multicultural global marketplace and associations to innovation, is expected to grow further in status over the next ten years considering multiple demographic factors. Yet, the developments surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic continue to hinder the pursuit of these positive goals. The direct and indirect effects of the COVID-19 pandemic stand to affect workforce diversity and inclusion efforts in significant ways. Research findings have highlight significant levels of health, economic, and racial inequalities among individuals affected by COVID-19 as a potential consequence of poverty, access to care, and roles as essential workers. The present research study will provide an exploration of how the global pandemic has impacted diversity in the work environment within the past 18 months in light of decades of workplace diversity gains achieved. This vital area of discussion is set into a historical timeframe that will necessarily address how the recent global issues influence the direction of diversity efforts.
