issues with their in their multicultural workplace that is leading to high turnover, low
productivity and low morale among the employees. The company’s current chairman Giordon

that are faced by the company regarding the multicultural diversity present in the company as
well as other ASX listed companies operating in Australia. The primary issue identified is the
gender inequality present within the organization. Though both male and female performs equal
duty for the company and sometimes delivers more work than the male employees, they are still
largely stereotyped in this modern workplace. The salary provided to the women tends to be
lesser than the male employee of the organization. It is important for the organization to attain
equality in the diversified work culture to eliminate the moral and ethical issues faced by the
organization.
