The law mandates the adoption of planned measures and resources from March this year, including protocols to prevent and address harassment or violence against LGBTI individuals. This requirement is part of a broader effort to ensure that workplaces comply with statutory obligations and reflect a commitment to diversity and inclusion and to combat workplace discrimination.
The dialogue involves stakeholders, including labour unions and employers’ organisations. This collaborative approach signifies the importance of unity in addressing discrimination and fostering a more inclusive work environment.
This development, spearheaded by Vice President Yolanda Díaz, is an opportunity for businesses to lead in fostering an inclusive workplace culture, driving positive outcomes for their workforce and the broader society.
Implementing these measures also mitigates risks associated with non-compliance, and employers should start reviewing their policies to verify their alignment with the new provisions.
