This article reports emerging findings from a qualitative research study about lesbian, gay and bisexual (LGB) people at work in the UK. The research focuses on the personal experiences and strategies of LGB people amidst changing organisational responses to sexuality within a new legal and political landscape following the introduction of the Employment Equality (Sexual Orientation) Regulations 2003. The article draws specifically on the perceptions of lesbian respondents about a range of issues concerning social inclusion and exclusion in the workplace including coming out at work, treatment by managers and colleagues, workplace and organisational culture and participation in LGBT groups and networks.
本文报告了一项关于英国职场中女同性恋、男同性恋和双性恋（LGB）群体的定性研究的新发现。该研究聚焦于在2003年《就业平等（性取向）条例》出台后，在新的法律和政治环境下，LGB群体在工作中面对组织对性取向态度变化时的个人经历和应对策略。本文特别借鉴了女同性恋受访者对一系列职场中社会包容与排斥问题的看法，这些问题包括在工作中公开性取向、经理和同事的对待方式、工作场所和组织文化以及参与LGBT群体和网络等。
