It is also a great time to check whether your organisation is walking this walk in order to make sure that its queer employees, clients, and beneficiaries are being treated fairly and do not experience any form of discrimination or aggression. What does it mean? It means that posting about Pride during this month is not enough. In order to be truly queer-friendly you need to ensure that LGBTQ+ people you work with feel safe, included, and provided with equal opportunities.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"p-rich_text_section\">What can you do about it?
