Building Affirming Workplaces: Supporting our Transgender & Non-Binary Employees

In order to do our best work, we all need to feel safe, respected, and appreciated. For the 1.4 million+ adults in the United States who identify as transgender or non-binary, the workplace often comes with some additional challenges in feeling safe, respected, and appreciated. In order to provide a workplace where transgender and non-binary people can do their best work, it is crucial that employers and colleagues work together to create an environment where these individuals can thrive. This 2-hour online training is designed to help Human Resources professionals increase their baseline knowledge of transgender and non-binary identities, awareness of the common challenges that individuals face in the workplace, and be better prepared to implement related skills. Topics include tips and tricks for learning someone’s new name or pronoun, avoiding common microaggressions, and supporting employees through HR-related systems.
