K&H: variety is important not only in nature, but also in the workplace

Since 2020, May has been European Diversity Month, which is why the European Commission draws attention to the importance of diversity and inclusion in the workplace and in society with various events. This year’s motto is “Building Bridges”, i.e. how to build bridges between the organization and employees with different abilities, backgrounds and origins. According to K&H, supporting diversity is already an important part of the company’s strategy and the HR toolkit, and it also means benefits for the organization. The accepting work environment not only means equal opportunities for the employees, but the company also grows with employees with different perspectives, who bring different opinions and ideas with them, and thus can form a dynamic and creative team. Creating a tolerant work environment also serves as an example: if people experience the benefits of diversity in the workplace, it will become natural for the entire society to respect and accept each other regardless of age, gender, nationality, physical limitations, religion or sexual orientation.
