ABSTRACT
Gender diversity in the workplace is the fair representation and inclusion of people of various gender identities in an organization. Traditionally, most sectors have been dominated by men, with women and gender minorities having systemic obstacles to entry and career progression. In the last few decades, there has been increasing awareness of the necessity for inclusivity. This research paper examines the idea of gender inclusion in the workplace, emphasizing the challenges that business face as well as the benefits that come from creating inclusive workplace. As diversity, equity, and inclusion gain more attention, gender inclusivity has emerged as a top concern for many companies, but issues like discrimination, unequal pay and underrepresentation continue to exist. In order to assess the effects of gender inclusion, this study makes use of secondary data from academic publication, industry report and case studies. It concludes with helpful recommendation and suggestion for fostering a more gender balanced work environment.
