Tips for creating more inclusive workspaces by the Globant LGBTQ+ community:
1
Visibilize and naturalize. Understand that there are different ways of seeing the world, of living life and that all of them are valid.
2
Create community. Create a space of containment for LGBTQ+ people and for those who want to be allies.
3
Use neutral terms and pronouns. Avoid addressing people in your work team assuming their sexual orientation or gender identity.
4
It starts with you! Make sure to foster tolerance and respect for diversity in order to create an inclusive space with your work team.
5
Implement inclusive policies. Make sure that the company’s diversity policies or Codes of Ethics include the LGBTQ+ community.
6
Make a public commitment towards the LGBTQ+ community. Try to have representation at corporate events and hiring policies towards the LGBTQ+ community.
