Item Summary

"Conclusion and Recommendations:" “LGBTIQ employees in Sri Lanka face significant challenges in their workplaces. They are often discriminated when accessing employment, job promotions, denied various employment benefits and face a plethora of challenges. This study not only investigates the challenges that LGBTIQ people face in their workplace, but also explores the mindsets and opinions of employers about the LGBTIQ community, their rights, and issues. While the study sheds light on workplace discrimination and the skepticism of employers/organisations, it has also identified some areas which can be improved and provided recommendations accordingly. After analysing the findings of both employee and employer survey, this study has identified four major actors who can play fundamental roles in creating a discrimination free and inclusive work environment.”
