Retos de la Inclusión Laboral en la Comunidad Transgénero de Bogotá

Abstract

In this research, which has the option of journalistic production, we will explore some of the labor challenges faced by transgender people in Bogota. As well as the analysis of current public policies on labor inclusion of this population. Its development is based on a mixed methodological approach, which integrates qualitative and quantitative techniques, with the purpose of identifying the specific needs of the community and making visible the difficulties that continue to arise in access to employment, so that the public policies implemented for their inclusion can be evaluated. The research reveals that employment barriers for transgender people include discrimination, insufficient availability of inclusion programs and information, and low effective implementation of public policies. In addition, significant gaps were identified in current policies that do not adequately address the needs of the transgender community in the workplace. From these findings, it is determined that the implementation of LGTBI plans in companies is crucial to strengthen the labor participation of the transgender community. It is recommended that companies adopt proactive approaches, involve the trans community in the construction of their policies and constantly update their plans to ensure their effectiveness.
