1️⃣Social differences are based either upon the birth of an individual in a particular community or the choices made by an individual.

2️⃣Caste, community and religion are primarily ascribed to an individual at birth.

3️⃣While physical differences are present in individuals from birth itself, differences due to choice include education and lifestyle.

4️⃣However, many of these choices are also shaped by the socio-economic conditions that an individual encounters.

5️⃣Thus, a person born in an affluent family has more options available for education than one who is born in a family with limited means.

Defining Diversity

The concept of diversity in the workplace goes beyond including employees of various racial and ethnic backgrounds. According to the Society for Human Resource Management, diversity means valuing the characteristics that make a person unique, such as age, ethnicity, education level and family background. Inclusion of diverse individuals fosters a rich exchange of new ideas among employees and helps an organization leverage the unique character of its workforce.

Causes of Diversity

Several phenomena have contributed to the the prevalence of diversity in the modern workplace. The population of the United States is becoming more ethnically and racially diverse. Census figures show that non-Hispanic whites are a slow-growing segment of the population, so it follows that the number of non-Hispanic whites in the workplace will shrink. Over decades, enforcement of civil rights and antidiscrimination laws has helped create an atmosphere of tolerance for individual differences. The median age of the population has also increased, meaning more older Americans are working. Finally, companies want to reach consumers in the global marketplace, and they need employees who understand consumer culture in countries outside the U.S. All of these factors have caused the American workplace to embrace diversity.
