Businesses can take multiple steps to prevent discrimination:
1. Implementing Policies: Establish clear anti-discrimination policies and ensure they are communicated to all employees. 2. Training Programs: Provide regular training on diversity, equity, and inclusion to educate employees about discrimination and its impacts. 3. Diverse Hiring Practices: Use unbiased recruitment processes to ensure a diverse workforce. 4. Employee Resource Groups: Create groups to support underrepresented employees and foster an inclusive environment. 5. Complaint Mechanisms: Establish confidential channels for employees to report discrimination without fear of retaliation.
