Italy: opinion on having colleagues with different backgrounds 2019

In a survey of 2019, Roma people represented the group with whom Italians felt less comfortable at workplace. More specifically, only 38 percent of Italian respondents declared to be comfortable with a Roma colleague with whom they would be in daily contact at work. Additionally, half of the interviewees affirmed to feel confident about having a transgender colleague. Transgender colleagues represented the second largest group with whom Italian interviewees felt less comfortable with.

Supplementary notes

This question was phrased by the source as follows: "Regardless of whether you are actually working or not, please tell me, using a scale from 1 to 10, how comfortable you would feel, if a colleague at work with whom you are in daily contact, belonged to each of the following groups? ‘1’ means that you would feel "not at all comfortable" and ‘10’ that you would feel "totally comfortable" ". For the purpose of this statistic only the 'Total 'Comfortbale'" category has been considered.
