How do you handle pronouns changes at work? Changes may look like: 〰 Changing their pronouns between their job application and starting on their first day.

This is so helpful! And an important conversation. The stress and emotional labour of communicating pronoun changes typically falls to the individual. Especially when it comes to making corrections! It can feel rude to interrupt and center oneself for this purpose. Especially for a new employee! Therefore, it may also help to establish (and model) norms where the team speaks up for one another to help with gentle corrections.

Not respecting pronouns and preferred names in the workplace can create a hostile work environment in the eyes of the law and is just generally a bad practice to allow to continue, even unintentionally. Last month, vacating summary judgment for the employer, a federal appeals court has ruled that while an occasional mistake using the incorrect name or pronouns will not create liability, misgendering an employee can be “severe and pervasive” enough to support a claim of hostile work environment under Title VII. Does your org have a policy to match the new interpretation/ruling on this topic? If you need consultative help in writing this policy, providing training to your managers, drafting more inclusive communications, or a gender neutral assessment of your documents, policies and programs, please use the link in my profile to connect. #IDEA #DEIConsultant #LGBTQRights #EmploymentLaw
