Titled "LGBT Diversity in the Workplace", the event is part of Fridae's ongoing efforts to promote the empowerment of LGBTs in Asia. Registrations are now open.
About 90 human resource professionals, diversity champions, NGOs and LGBT community leaders attended the second Annual Workplace Diversity conference, which was presented by Aibai and IBM, in Beijing last month.
Over 350 LGBT business executives (including Fridae Chairman Paul Thompson) and allies from more than 26 countries, representing more than 80 organizations and government agencies, gathered in London to share their best practices and ideas for creating workplaces where LGBT people are safe, accepted, and valued.
The Internet was abuzz over the weekend with reports that Google has launched a worldwide push to legalise same-sex marriage but it has since clarified that it is not the case, a Google spokesperson told Fridae on Monday.
Fridae.com's Hong Kong correspondent, Nigel Collett, visits the Queer Straight Alliance's Inclusion Recruitment Conference which saw participation of human resources and diversity managers from Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Goldman Sachs, Hong Kong Disneyland, Nomura and UBS.
Why should businesses care? How can businesses create inclusive workplaces for LGBT employees? The report looks at some of the challenges faced by LGBT employees in Hong Kong and provides some very practical suggestions of what companies in Hong Kong can do to make their workplaces more inclusive.
Community Business, a non-profit organisation, is planning to produce a LGBT Resource Guide to help companies create inclusive workplaces for LGBT employees in Hong Kong. If you have any observations about issues relating to LGBT employees in Hong Kong, you can share your views in the online survey.

I'm a relationship oriented guy. Versatile, HIV-, no drugs, no drama. Love to laugh. Live right on a lake and enjoy the water. Love to explore, and the DC area has lots of interesting things to see and do. Looking for a decent looking guy, 24 - 39, whose mind is working, has a decent sense of humor and some adventure in him. Someone who says what he means and means what he says.
