Women, people of foreign origin and people with disabilities relatively often feel discriminated once morest in the workplace. Just like staff from large companies, employees who are not allowed to make many decisions for themselves and staff who do dangerous work.
This is evident from a deeper analysis of CBS data from April. “In April we only looked at numbers,” statistical researcher Luuk Hovius from CBS explains to NU.nl. “But for these new survey results, we conducted further research into the circumstances of those who reported feeling discriminated once morest.”
For example, the CBS researchers discovered that employees in large organizations, employees who are not allowed to make much of their own decisions and personnel who do dangerous work, relatively often feel discriminated once morest. Employees with a disability or long-term condition suffer from being ignored or excluded.
Women with many other female colleagues were less likely to indicate that they would be discriminated once morest. But this does not apply to foreign employees with many colleagues from abroad. In fact, the feeling of being discriminated once morest is more common among employees of companies with many employees of foreign origin. “We don’t know what causes this,” says Hovius.
What is also striking is that highly educated people and employees with a managerial position also relatively often indicate that they suffer from discrimination in the workplace. The same goes for workers in highly urbanized areas. Hovius has no explanation for this either. “More research needs to be done on this.”

One in ten employees feels discriminated once morest
In April it emerged that around 10 percent of employees in the Netherlands felt discriminated once morest in 2022. 35 percent of them said they had to deal with discriminatory comments, being ignored or excluded. “One in ten employees may not sound like much, but we are still talking regarding regarding 800,000 people,” Hovius said in April.
MBO students have also indicated for years that they have suffered from internship discrimination. If they report this, they feel they are not being taken seriously. At the end of October, research showed that discrimination in the workplace occurs structurally in municipalities.
The Inclusive Society Knowledge Platform (KIS) conducted the research into discrimination in municipal organizations. “We suspect that structural discrimination in the workplace occurs more widely than just in municipalities,” KIS researcher Hanneke Felten told NU.nl.
