Government Ministries, Major Multinationals and Civil Society Move the Dial in LGBTI Work- place Inclusion Conference

政府部門、大型跨國企業與公民組織在LGBTI職場平權研討會中創造實質進展

 

“Taiwan - Trailblazing LGBTI Workplace Inclusion in Asia” is the title of this unique conference bringing together different stakeholders in a bi-national and multi-media event. With the sub-title: Marriage equality in times of social change”, the timely gathering is being organised against the backdrop of ever greater diverse and inclusive societies and workplaces.

 

這場獨一無二的多媒體研討會名為「台灣──亞洲同志職場平權的先鋒」,由兩國聯合舉辦,聚集了來自各領域的行動者。當今社會有著前所未見的多元性和包容性,在此背景下,這場以「社會變遷下的婚姻平權」為副標題的活動順勢而生。

Same-sex marriage is now a fact in Taiwan. This has direct implications for employers and the country as a whole when it comes to the impact on workplaces. But are workplaces prepared when it comes to employee benefits, interaction with their markets/customers, and how marriage equality will effect recruitment and retention? Will married LGBTI employees feel comfortable to be themselves and how do employers prepare their organization for the overall trend of greater diversity and inclusion that is increasingly prevalent around the world?

同性婚姻在台灣已成事實,而當談到職場議題時,這個事實不論對雇主還是整體國家來說,都會造成直接的影響。然而,在員工服務、市場/客戶互動,以及婚姻平權如何影響員工招募與留用等議題上,各職場準備好了嗎?已婚的LGBTI員工能否在職場上舒服做自己,而面對全球越來越普遍且強大的多元和融合趨勢,雇主們該如何為自身企業做好準備?

As the first country in Asia to implement marriage equality, Taiwan has both a great responsibility to get its impact on LGBTI workplace inclusion right and a great opportunity to set the tone in the region for years to come. And now, within the context of social and geo-political changes sur- rounding the global pandemic, the leadership role for Taiwan is even more needed.

作為亞洲第一個實踐婚姻平權的國家,台灣肩負著重大的責任,為LGBTI的職場平權帶來正向影響;與此同時,台灣也面臨一個絕佳的機會,為該地區在未來數年的趨勢定調。當前社會與地緣政治的變動環繞著全球疫情而生,台灣比任何時候都更需要承擔這個領導角色。

 

“Forward thinking employers realise that marriage equality in Taiwan will require a different ap- proach to interaction with employees, clients and society”. Says Michiel Kolman, Co-Chair of Workplace Pride and speaker at the event, “This conference brings all stakeholders together and will set the tone for workplace diversity and inclusion in Asia for years to come”.

 

「帶有前瞻性思考的雇主理解到,在台灣,婚姻平權將使他們必須針對和員工、客戶與整體社會的互動,發展出一個不同的態度與方式。」Workplace Pride的共同創辦人與研討會講者之一的米歇爾.柯曼(Michiel Kolman)這麼說。「這場研討會集結了各方行動者,並將為未來亞洲地區的多元職場和職場平權議題定調。」
