Employees Either Obey Woke Insanity or Risk Losing Their Job

Employees who voice opinions on gender, race, sexuality and religion risk being sacked from their workplace, GB News has been told.

British firms pose a “danger” of “threatening” the freedom of employees, according to an organisation which advocates freedom of speech.

Director of Data and Impact at the Free Speech Union (FSU) Thomas Harris says Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) policies – which are often compulsory for employees – could “further erode freedom of expression”.

The FSU reports that one in 20 of its cases are directly related to EDI training which are “accelerating the politicization of the workplace”.

While organisations such as Coutts and the Church of England’s investment bodies have signed up to the UN Principles for Responsible Investment – which encompasses EDI and Net Zero policies.

The FSU has shared exclusive case studies with GB News, including examples of employees who have faced possible sanctions.

Some members have been told that they will fail their EDI training if they don’t pass a test with a “sufficiently high score” which could ultimately see employees suffering “hostility” and a potential sanction.
