More than a third of Black workers report being treated unfairly in the workplace in the past year because of their race or ethnicity, a survey released in May 2021 revealed by the Society for Human Resource Management found. That number rises to 42% for Black workers over a longer time period of five years, the Cost of Racial Injustice report found. The percentages for Asian workers was 26%, while 21% of Hispanic or Latino workers said they were unfairly treated during the five-year period. For white workers, the number was 12%.
