If you are you a transgender employee, please see Trans and Gender Non-Conforming Employees Resources.

Welcome, coworkers and employers of trans and gender-nonconforming people!

From the Human Rights Campaign: "Transgender employees can present unique workplace challenges. Transitioning employees – those who are moving outside the socially accepted standards of dress, physiology and/or behavior of their birth gender – often cannot avoid challenging community standards about what is gender-appropriate self-identification, appearance or expression. Furthermore, little legal protection exists for workplace gender non-conformity."

Resources from Human Rights Campaign include:

• Transgender Inclusion in the Workplace
  An guide to transgender inclusion, including definitions and considerations for transitioning employees.
• Gender Transition Guidelines
  How to effectively and appropriately manage gender transitions in the workplace
