an vital phenomenon at workplace of a company as it is a concept that brings fairness and un-
biasness at workplace through treating all diversified employees with an equal and fair

these behaviours are essential to set a coordination and integration among diversified employees
that lead to enriched skills and competencies of organisation. It could also be evaluated that a

As per the information provided by Ruth Mayhew, 2019, leading equality and diversity at
