Stay Ahead with the Power of Upskilling - Invest in Yourself! 
The human Resource managers have to respond to a wide range of diversity issue due to diverse workforce of varying socio-economic, ethnic and linguistic composition. Workforce diversity has significant implications for the management.
India is a land of diversity that is caused by many factors such as multi-linguist composition of the sub-continent, co-existence of people following a large number of religions, an age old and deep rooted multi caste system and cultural invasion from the outside world that has confused the original values of the Indian mind. Diversity based on religion, race, caste, language, gender etc. among the workforce is to be duly recognized and managed. Also, a large number of women entering the work arena is emerging as a contributory factor to diversified workforce in modern organisations. No wonder, therefore, the organisations in India have to deal with a very diverse social group of employees.
Various categories of employees in the Indian organisation include the following-
1) Scheduled caste(SCs) and Scheduled tribes(STs)
2) other Backward castes(OBCs)
3) Disabled or physically handicapped persons
4) Ex-defence Personnel
5) Displaced person
6) Female Employees
The ratio of women workers at the place of work is on the rise. This has been associated with the problems of discrimination and sexual harassment. The organisations need to take steps to deal with such problems.
Workforce diversity represents both a challenge and an opportunity for business. A growing number of progressive organisations are realizing the need for valuing diversity in the workforce, so as to ensure strategic utilisation of human resources for the accomplishment of strategic goals.
