Title card: Trans Inclusion in the Workplace: A Guide to Pronouns

We use pronouns each and every day, as a short and simple alternative to using a proper noun. Pronouns are like shortcuts – they provide a faster and easier way to communicate without frequently repeating a noun. In the English language, pronouns, when used to refer to people in the third person, are often gendered, meaning that we assume an individual’s pronouns based on our perception of their gender.
