Supporting Social Identity Justice and Equality in the Workplace: Focus

Social identity historically has served to differentiate individuals and even marginalize those with an identity different than the mainstream. This can include identity based on sex, race, ethnicity, religion, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, and others. This has led these individuals to suffer injustices and inequalities in society that can carry over into the workplace. This course explores the problems and causes of injustices and inequalities due to social identity. Further, it addresses ways we can better recognize injustices and inequalities due to social identity, learn more about this injustice and inequality, and take steps to address these challenges.
