Singaporeans believe their employers are open to diversity issues: study

There is still a lot of room for growth, though.

About 52% of employees in Singapore believe their organizations are responsive to feedback on diversity issues, with around a third saying they are committed to creating a diverse team, according to a survey by foundit.

Its findings showed that more than half of the respondents have diversity training programs within their companies, with 36% saying these are mandatory. Less than a quarter said they gained significant awareness from these trainings while 30% did not see any improvement.

Company feedback on diversity issues highlighted a positive trend in organisational communication and action on concerns, according to foundit.

Meanwhile, employees believe their organisations are adopting different strategies to ensure equal opportunities, including: conducting interviews in diversity-friendly spaces, inviting applications from diverse communities, providing anti-bias training and consistently committing to diversity hiring goals.
