As part of Copenhagen Pride 2025, the Equality Unit hosted a seminar at the City Hall focusing on LGBT+ inclusion in the labor market.

The event was arranged in collaboration with the Employment and Integration Administration and brought together LGBT+ persons, politicians, municipal employees, and NGOs. One of the aims was to create dialogue and cooperation across different stakeholders.

The program included presentations and roundtable discussions where participants explored the following questions:

What characterizes a safe and inclusive workplace for LGBT+ persons?

Which concrete initiatives can strengthen LGBT+ persons’ well-being and sense of security in the labor market?

How can we create an environment where LGBT+ employees feel more respected and supported?

The Equality Unit collected 117 inputs from the seminar. Based on these contributions, the Unit has developed an Idea-catalogue, which will be presented to the Mayor for Employment and Integration and will also inform the future work of the Equality Unit.
