Editor's Notes

My objective is not only try to take a stand on this issue, but also I would like to try and present both sides of issue. I want to take this opportunity to thank you for allowing me . My today’s topic is DIVERSITY AT WORKPLACE
- Workplace diversity refers to the variety of differences between people in an organization. It is also understanding of individual are different and unique. Cultural diversity has been major party of Indian history, and through it, Indian culture is consistently developing.
- These are the elements of the diversity, in which a person can judge an another person by..age, genger, physical ability, income, education, marital status, religious etc.
- Hiring people with defferent cultural backgrounds. Company always look at the diversity in the organization, therefore recruiters visits colleges of all over India and take them in a common cultural areas. Where they adopt the culture and manage the diversity towards organizational goal.
- Managing diversity : The best way to managing the diversity is Planning and Implementing organizational systems so that the advantages of diversity are maximized while its disadvantages are minimized. Most people believe in the golden rule : treat others as you want to be treated. It is implicit that how you want to be treated is how others want to be treated. But when you look this through diversity prospective, you begin to ask the question – what does respect look like?, does it look same for everyone? No right …so you should not treat people as you are treated.
- Equation of the diversity: Respecting individuals from diff background + valuing or respect them+ with representing our business = Diversity
- Multiculturalism is of multiple group of cultures existing within one society. It’s a system of behaviors to respect the presence of all the diverse group in an organization.
- Women in the workplace: Today the employment of women has increase than India history and workforce has the highest levels of employment participation ever by women. The no of single working mother has increased. Therefore, diversity issues cut across both race and gender.
- Customer service…example of call centers Staffs are encouraged to work in their areas to reflect its diversity. Valuing diversity leads potential development.
- Example: Coca-cola Coca coal says diversity is at the heart of our business. They create a work environment that provides equal access to information, development and opportunity. They see diversity as more than just policies and practices. CEO Muhtat kent ..
- Here I would like to conclude that…A diverse workforce is a reflection of a changing world and marketplace It brings high value in the market It increases work productivity It creates fair and safe environment where everyone has access to opportunities and challenges. The teacher or tutor has to treat and take care of the differences in the group and to use them in a constructive way so they turn out positively for the work of the whole group.
