| Abstract | The lived experience of Deaf gay workers employed in the private sector in the Philippines remains under-researched. The inadequacy of reliable and accurate data on the situation of Persons with Disabilities and the LGBTQ+ community in employment, coupled with the documented experiences of workplace discrimination that target these disadvantaged groups, render the experiences of those at the intersection of these identities, including Deaf gay workers, practically invisible. Hence, the need to examine their specific realities in order to surface their interlocking experience of discrimination in the workplace. As an exploratory study, this research aims to document and analyze the Deaf gay workers’ experience of workplace discrimination at the intersection of their disability and sexual orientation. This research focuses on three areas common from the related literature: recruitment and selection, workplace accommodation, and workplace participation. This research utilizes the Gender and Development (GAD) framework, which aims to address inequalities brought about by gender roles and relations, and the intersectionality theory, which recognizes that social inequalities often overlap and create interlocking forms of social injustice. |
