Examines the strong social reactions transgender individuals face in the workplace. The book focuses on how transgender employees remain silent about their gender identity as it becomes the only viable option to attempt to avoid discrimination and prejudice from their employer or colleagues.
Transgender is a broad term used to describe those whose gender, gender identity, or gender expression is in some sense different from, or transgresses social norms for, their assigned birth sex.

Transgender may include those who identify as being transsexual, cross-dressers, androgynous, bi-gender, no-gender, multi-gender, or genderqueer. Transsexual people in strict societies living ""covered"" lives hide their identity from virtually everyone including their own family members, friends, colleagues, and employers and spend their lives as one of their birth genders would.

There are transgender individuals who hide their identities and live full-time in a gender-affirming role because they are not interested in hormonal and surgical sex reassignment and want to avoid any discrimination or abuse linked with disclosure of gender.

Those who challenge the binary order by enacting their gender in ways that are comfortable for them but disturbing to others face undesirable reactions extending from discrimination to explicit violence.

Transgender Discrimination in the Workplace is an essential reference source that scrutinizes the strong social reactions transgender individuals face in the workplace. This book focuses on how transgender employees remain silent about their gender identity as it becomes the only viable option to attempt to avoid discrimination and prejudice from their employer or colleagues.

The chapters highlight topics such as transgender rights, inclusivity and equality, workplace ethics, and transitioning at work.

This is an essential book for managers, human resources managers, executives, policymakers, activists, social justice professionals, researchers, academicians, and students working in fields that include but are not limited to LGBTQ+ studies, gender studies, management, human resources management, organizational culture, business policy and law, human rights and social justice, and business ethics.
