Ask a trans person!

This is not really a question, but I wanted to share something that made me

My employer is VERY progressive. And I knew that already.

Today while searching through our policy database, I randomly came across the policy on Transgender and Transitioning.

I can't post it all here due to compliance, but I can give you snapshots:

-advocate for diversity-
-maintain a workplace environment that embraces diversity-
-every employee makes a unique contribution-
-fairness and equity ...defining characteristics of the workplace environment-
-discrimination/harassment will not be tolerated or condoned-

-managing an empolyee who is transitioning= ...demonstrate an understanding, sensitive approach to his/her needs and concerns-

It just made me appreciate my employer even more...
