Everyday Exclusions

Everyday exclusions are the everyday insults and indignities that people from underrepresented groups experience as a result of their identity.

Also known as “microaggressions”, everyday exclusions undermine our efforts to build an inclusive working environment by making people feel like they don’t belong. This has a significant impact on the physical and mental wellbeing of those who experience this behaviour.
