Abstrakt: This article explores the potential benefits of employing ethnocultural minorities in Europe. It acknowledges that these minorities make up a significant portion of the population in Western European countries and have diverse educational backgrounds. However, they often face challenges in the labor market, such as higher rates of unemployment and lower salaries. The article suggests that by promoting the inclusion of ethnocultural minorities in the workplace, companies can address talent gaps, boost economic empowerment, and contribute to economic growth and social cohesion. It emphasizes the importance of understanding local talent supply and demand to effectively support these employees. The article also discusses the experiences of ethnocultural minority employees (EMEs) in the workplace, highlighting the biases and microaggressions they often face. The challenges experienced by EMEs vary based on their occupational skill level and educational attainment. Those in low-skill occupations face more difficulties and receive less support and training compared to those in high-skill occupations. The article concludes by emphasizing the need for targeted interventions and an inclusive workplace culture to hire, retain, and advance EME talent. It also highlights the practices and initiatives of companies in promoting EME inclusion, while calling for greater commitment and engagement in this area. [Extracted from the article]
