Introduction The purpose of this paper is to outline some of the organization's anti-discrimination guidelines and explain how one complaint of prejudice was managed in accordance with those guidelines. It will go over the findings, how strictly these anti-discrimination policies were followed, and how those results affected the organization's reputation and internal morale. The diversity strategy of the company will be covered in more detail, as well as how, from the author's perspective, it gives employees a competitive edge at work. Policies My organization has implemented a variety of measures to reduce, if not eliminate, discriminatory behavior inside its organizational structure. One such policy is a broad declaration outlining the organization's opposition to discriminatory behavior, which calls for an annual review of the organization's current rules. It provides directions on how to register a complaint about discrimination that has occurred at the business. It promotes awareness of one's moral and legal right to be free from discrimination in conformity with the Human Rights Code and other applicable laws. This is its most important goal. Personally, I thought it was incredibly creative. A second principle that is put into reality by the organization is its Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs, particularly with the Indigenous community through its own internal Indigenous Engagement Charter. The Charter is a detailed document that defines the goals and steps to be taken in conjunction with these communities to foster active hiring and community involvement as well as reconciliation with Indigenous communities. The Charter, which is subject to review every two years, strives to improve access to education and training by supporting the professional development of Indigenous community members both inside and outside of the community. It accomplishes this by providing the Indigenous community with
complete funding for the progress of Indigenous workers' children's education. The charter's section on minority groups inside the organization also includes numerous policies and processes for giving minorities the required knowledge and training to ensure that they are not ignored. All personnel are required to attend semi-annual seminars on bias and discrimination under the third policy of the business. The organization uses an internal communication technology so that all employees have access to the service directives. Within the business, there is a clear obligation to refrain from acting in a way that infringes on others' rights to a secure and fair workplace. Active engagement is not only encouraged but also required through the completion of supplementary training sessions that are related to job performance evaluations. A final policy can address the organization's desire and campaign to have members of diverse groups self-identify as such to give greater management resources to support these varied communities. The organization views self-declaration/identification as a significant resource for equity and diversity efforts. Ensuring that no one is turned down for a job for any reason other than their ability for the task, it fosters employment equity. It tries to make sure that modifications are made to get rid of barriers that have been and currently are in the way of individuals being able to do the job. Work Example The author recalls an incident where a worker claimed that because all the Bureau's officials were white men and women, management did not reflect the varied culture the company sought to cultivate. In a timely manner, the applicants took it upon themselves to bring in Human Resources and Equity and Diversity specialists to discuss the matter and conduct an independent analysis of its key performance indicators for promoting people to managerial roles, all without
The organization reduced the interval between policy reviews from every two years to once a year to solve the issue. The organization was acknowledged for several years as one of Canada's safest employers because of its commitment to fixing its problems. As a result, the organization has made the decision to support several fresh initiatives that promote prioritizing employees' requirements and listening to their worries. Every single one of its employees wants to do their part to help the business become known as a secure workplace that values diversity and the advancement of others. This has boosted morale as employee satisfaction has now been achieved 100% for the first time in the organization’s history. Conclusion To conclude, the organization is shifting away from being reactive and toward taking initiative when it comes to addressing discrimination. It understood its failure to follow its rules and regulations to allow for the promotion of members in other communities and was able to resolve future collateral issues like multigenerational home expenses impeding employees' progress inside various communities. The organization has advanced by creating a friendly and trustworthy environment based on its prompt and humble response, even though there is still much to be done.
