LGBTI+ people are one of the largest minority groups in the workforce, and at the same time one of the least studied. International and EU-level studies point to significant levels of discrimination against LGBTI+ workers, and show that anti-discrimination legislation, where it exists, is not enforced effectively. LGBTI+ workers may be denied their employment rights, and they face high levels of discrimination as well as verbal and other harassment at work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The project aims to support the inclusion of LGBTI+ citizens in employment and the workplace by establishing a body at national level to collect data on the socio-economic challenges this community faces in Serbia, particularly in recruitment and the workplace. The project will also produce guidance on alternative mechanisms for protecting the socio-economic rights of LGBTI+ citizens through the active involvement of private sector employers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In order to understand the situation of LGBTI+ people in the labour market and the factors that shape it, the project will develop a methodological framework for analysing their situation. Both qualitative and quantitative research will be carried out. Alongside LGBTI+ people, companies will also take part, since the aim is to assess progress in workplace diversity policies and measures, identify factors that support or hinder their implementation, and document practical experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The project was carried out by IDEAS in partnership with Gej lezbejski info centar, XY spektar and Erga Omnes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
