Question 2

Describe the differences between affirmative action, valuing diversity, and inclusion.

Accepted Answer

Affirmative action are policies designed to improve work outcomes for underrepresented groups by providing them with extra help in the employment process.Valuing diversity is broader in scope, as it doesn't focus simply on not discriminating against diverse groups and helping only some of them (sometimes at the expense of others through reverse discrimination).But valuing diversity still has a focus on accepting differences and on helping certain groups.Inclusion is a practice of ensuring that every employee feels they belong as a valued member of the organization.An inclusive value system creates a sense of belonging: a feeling of being respected and of being valued for who you are, feeling a level of supportive energy and commitment from others so that everyone can do their best work.
