LGBTQ+: How inclusive are Indian workplaces?
b'
Before India legalised homosexual sex in 2018, the LGBTQ+ community in this country of more than a billion people lived under the shadow of a law dating back nearly 160 years to colonial rule.
As the ruling was handed down, there were celebrations all across the country, but three years on, have social mindsets and attitudes changed? Do professionals from the LGBTQ+ community find it easier to apply for jobs or ask for promotions, or is it still monumental to come out at work? And do corporate India\\u2019s inclusive policies tackle real representation, or are they mere tokenism?
In this edition of WorklifeIndia, we discuss how inclusive Indian workplaces are for the LGBTQ+ community.
