Perceptions of workplace climate and diversity, equity, and inclusion within health services and policy research.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To describe the perception of professional climate in health services and policy research (HSPR) and efforts to advance diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in the HSPR workforce and workplaces.

Data source

We administered the HSPR Workplace Culture Survey online to health services and policy researchers.

Study design

Our survey examined participants' sociodemographic, educational, and professional backgrounds, their perception on DEI in HSPR, experience with DEI initiatives, feeling of inclusion, and direct and witnessed experiences of discrimination at their institutions/organizations. We calculated sample proportions of responses by gender identity, sexual orientation, race/ethnicity, and disability status and compared them with Fisher's exact test.
