Equity. Digital art created on canvas. August 2, 2024. Afrika Abney
Green is the color associated with equity. The layering of colors and textures invites viewers to reflect on their own perceptions of fairness and equality, making "Equity" not just a piece of art, but a thought-provoking statement. The artwork's vibrant green serves as a reminder of the importance of nurturing equitable relationships, while the dark green elements challenge us to confront the obstacles that often stand in the way of achieving true equality.
“Equity in the workplace is the fair treatment of employees, and giving them access to the resources they need to succeed, regardless of their unique characteristics or disadvantages. It's about leveling the playing field so that everyone has an equal opportunity to succeed.Equity is different from equality, which is treating all employees the same. For example, equity might mean giving certain employees different opportunities than others, such as providing more support to employees with disabilities. Equity also involves removing barriers that employees might face, such as ensuring that physical spaces are accessible to all employees.”
