My office is using the word ‘gay’ as an insult or a slang term. I feel their ignorance regarding bisexual people will be worse. If these particular individuals didn’t work in my office anymore I’d feel comfortable being out in the workplace.’ Lord John Browne (whose recently published book The Glass Closet is essential reading for anyone taking diversity in the workplace seriously) is one of few openly gay business figures and we need more people to be as courageous as him. Pressure to play along. LGBTQ+ women are almost twice as likely to feel the pressure to “play along” with sexual discussion, humor, or actions than their straight-women and male-LGBTQ+ counterparts.Men at Work guitarist threatened to kill singer, police say". Los Angeles Times. 17 February 2009 . Retrieved 6 August 2016. We conducted 16 interviews. The interviews provided a relatively diverse - though not representative - group of respondents from across the UK, and of different ages, genders, LGBT+ identities, ethnicities, and across a range of job roles and sectors. Interviewees were more likely than the population as a whole to be members of, or reps in a union. In popular imagination, coming out is one grand gesture: a queer person stepping out of the proverbial closet, into a celebratory spotlight of visibility. In reality, many queer people and researchers agree that coming out is more of a long-term negotiation between how we understand our identity, and how we present those identities to other people. Nearly 6% of US adults now identify as LGBTQ, more than ever recorded. Yet persistent discrimination, and the fluidity of many people's experiences of gender and sexuality, often make coming out a continuous process of navigating in what spaces, and to what degree, we can be open about our identities.

It's no wonder, perhaps, that companies have been skirting around the LGBT question, treating it as the elephant in the room. There are few 'out' role models to demonstrate that members of the LGBT community even exist in business.

For example, legal frameworks and rules and regulations related to safety can vary by country—but a company might still insist on following the most stringent safety protocols, regardless of where it’s domiciled. That also applies with an ethos of inclusivity. We either believe in it or we don’t. Measuring—and rewarding—progress

So he felt a sense of impotence about not being able to do anything about it, and thought that was how he was going to be remembered.” Diana Ellsworth: At their core, employee resource groups help people feel connected to a community and that they’re not an only. They broaden the pipeline of recruitment, mentorship, and advising. And they have a role in educating, informing, and building allyship more broadly. Men at Work founder and vocalist-guitarist Colin Hay would reunite the band on a few different occasions following their break-up, but never with the complete lineup-- Hay, multi-instrumentalist Greg Ham, guitarist Ron Strykert, drummer Jerry Speiser and bassist John Rees -- from the group's most successful era. The current incarnation of the band touts Hay as the sole original member. As a musician he was great, he was very inspired and instinctive. I remember when he played the solo on Who Can It Be Now?, which is one of the great saxophone solos of all time in pop music. He only played it once. We were in the studio and we were just going to get a sound on the sax. The producer said to Greg, ‘Just play anything.’ So he pressed ‘record’ on the rehearsal take and afterwards said, ‘That’ll do, that’ll be fine.’ It was a genius solo.”Diana Ellsworth: We’ve done focus groups and interviews with LGBTQ+ leaders globally. Almost all could point to powerful moments of allyship—leaders taking a visible stance, either in support of an individual or the community broadly. Finding opportunities to be an active ally can have a significant impact on an employee’s career trajectory. Many people at the intersections of multiple systems of oppression – particularly people of colour in majority-white contexts – also experience constant identity policing. “My race is politicised, who I sleep with is politicised and if it doesn’t fit into that box that white supremacy is comfortable with, then you’ve got to question your whole self,” says Benton.

Diana Ellsworth: The hybrid workplace is something we’ll all need to figure out on many dimensions. For the LGBTQ+ community, working remotely has benefits but also real risks, especially taking a global view. There are a number of geographies, even in the US, where people are quite fearful about visibility into private life in the way remote work can require. Most LGBTQ people navigate a similarly delicate path around disclosure. For those who can “pass” as heterosexual or cisgender, coming out can often mean choosing between paying a psychological price for the relative safety of invisibility, and paying a potential social and economic price for being open about one's identity. For others, especially those who are gender nonconforming, being closeted at work isn’t an option. This can have significant detrimental effects: people who are perceived as falling outside of conventional gender norms are at higher risk of career-disrupting workplace harassment and discrimination.
