Discrimination towards Gays in the Workplace in Switzerland - 2017.


83

This article stems from a research carried out in Switzerland in 2014-2015. It highlights the discrimination that homosexual persons experience on the workplace. Based on a questionnaire on the internet, the authors analyze forms and frequencies of homophobic behavior, as well as the impact of various social factors such as age, visibility, and the work environment (rather male, rather female or mixed). Results show that such discrimination is experienced by most homosexuals in Switzerland, often through verbal stigmatization, exclusion, moral and sexual harassment. The results are analyzed from a gendered perspective, which highlights the impotance of gendered norms in homophobic behavior.
