Abstract

Diversity is increasingly present within our society, leading organizations to increasingly absorb a diverse workforce. In the face of this new reality, management of diversity emerges, consisting of a style of management where prejudice and discrimination are minimized to ensure an egalitarian environment where women, blacks, the disabled and the elderly can have the same opportunities for growth and development. In this sense the research had the objective of analyzing diversity management in an information technology company through the HR policies of the Department of People and Management, identifying how these actions contribute to the development of women, the black, disabled and elderly within the organization. This is a descriptive study with a qualitative approach, using bibliographical and field research as resources. As a research technique, a case study with semi-structured interview with the manager of an Information Technology company located in Recife / PE was used. The results of the analysis pointed out that the manager knows the importance of diversity management, its concept, cited as a way to stimulate the teams contributing to the development of all, but adopts diversity management based on the dissolution of differences. A style of diversity management that makes women, blacks, the disabled and the elderly minorities present in the organization and have little access to leadership and leadership positions.
