Abstract

Diversity and inclusion is an issue rarely addressed and acknowledged by employers, many workplaces have formal/informal D&I programmes, although it is of the highest significance for businesses and their employees. This study intends to investigate the effects of the perceived degree of diversity, inclusion, and belonging in Dublin workplaces on Argentinians, Brazilians, and Chileans residing in Ireland between the ages of 25 and 35.

The qualitative research was conducted using semi-structured interviews with individuals between the ages of 25 and 35 from Argentina, Brazil, and Chile. A total of nine individuals were invited, including 2 Argentinians, 4 Brazilians, and 3 Chileans. A phenomenological study was conducted in which the researcher first described his personal experiences, followed by the interviewees' direct remarks. After classifying the data into meaning units based on the study objectives, a narrative of what the participant experienced and how it occurred was created.

The study results add to a better understanding of the influence immigrants working in Dublin have on their employment's degree of diversity and inclusion, as well as how this impacts their levels of job satisfaction and performance.

In addition to perceiving high levels of diversity in Dublin, most employees also report feeling respected and involved at work. However, some responders report bad experiences and consequences.
