"We all want to feel safe and accepted at our workplace. While all workers are susceptible to negative workplace interactions, individuals in equity-seeking groups are more likely to experience bullying, exclusion, racism and discrimination. They are also less likely to report these incidents and remain silent to gain peer acceptance or retain employment.
“There should be opportunities for you to grow in different ways and to explore different spaces to develop ideas. Taking risks and getting involved is how we learn who we are.”
