Etarismo e gênero: uma análise interseccional na perspectiva da dimensão social no ambiente organizacional

Abstract

The aim of the research is to examine, through an intersectional analysis, the effects of age and gender bias, in order to understand the aspects and factors perceived by workers in the organizational environment and how they manifest in daily work practice. The research adopted a mixed-methods approach, enabling the collection of both quantitative and qualitative data to achieve a deeper understanding of the topic. This allowed for a more comprehensive analysis by integrating perceptions and personal experiences from questionnire with workers, human resource management professionals, and career transition consultants. In this way, it was possible to understand and recognize certain contexts and practices that either support or hinder a more inclusive, diverse, and equitable environment regarding gender and age issues, seeking, therefore, to clarify perceptions, concerns, and challenges surrounding the topic. By highlighting the challenges arising from changes in the valuation of longevity, age diversity, and gender, it is possible to raise awareness and sensitivity to the issue and to suggest implementing social practices and policies that mitigate negative factors and reinforce positive ones within organizations. The research process aims to enhance the corporate social sphere, identify key perceptions, concerns, and workplace difficulties, and combat age- and gender-based prejudice in organizations, aligning corporate practices with best practices for society as a whole
