Conclusion

Well done, you have now completed the first step to learning about how stereotype threat impacts the workplace. We have learned about how stereotype threat can negatively impact the mental and physical health of those experiencing stereotyping in their places of work. We learned about how this can affect not only workplace performance of employees, but also can lead to effects on overall mental and physical wellbeing. We also explored how Indigenous employees are more likely to experience stereotype threat in their workplace, and the impact this can have on the overall workplace culture and employee experience.
