Diversity includes all characteristics and experiences that define each of us as individuals. S a dng bao gm tt c cc tnh cach v kinh nghim xc nh mi chng ta l mt c nhn. Diversity is the variation of social and cultural identities among people existing together in a defined employment or market setting. Cultural diversity means the representation, in one social system, of people with distinctly different group affiliations of cultural significance. Workforce diversity refers to the composition of work units (work group, organization, occupation, establishment or firm) in terms of the cultural or demographic characteristics that are salient and symbolically meaningful in the relationship among group members. Broadly defined, diversity may refer to any perceived difference among people: age, functional, geographic orgin, life style, tenure with the organization, or position. We difine diversity as a mixture of people with different group identities within the same social system. The notion of diversity is predominantly used to refer to the variety of individuals and groups with whom work organizations are confronted in their labor markets, among their consumers and their employees. Diversity should be understood as the varied perspectives and approaches members of different identity groups bring to the workplace. In the workplace today not only does diversity imply differences in people based on their identification with various groups, but it is also a process of acknowledging differences through actions. We use the tern diversity to describe the distribution of differences among the members of a unit with respect to a common attribute, X, such as tenure, ethnicity, conscientiousness, task attitude, or pay. Diversity is a unit-level, compositional construct.. Diversity is also attribute-specific. A unit is not diverse per se. Rather, it is diverse with respect to one or more specific attribute of its members.
