New Deloitte Study Reveals Most U.S. Workers 'Cover' Their Identities at Work to Their -- and Their Employers' -- Detriment

NEW YORK, Nov. 14, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Deloitte's DEI Institute™ in collaboration with the Meltzer Center for Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging at NYU School of Law released its 2023 study, Uncovering Culture, exploring how U.S. workers "cover," or downplay known disfavored identities to fit into mainstream corporate cultures. According to the study, 60% of respondents have covered at work within the last 12 months, nearly the same percentage (61%) of respondents who reported covering at work 10 years ago in the first covering study. Among the top reasons workers cite for covering are so that others don't think less of them, to avoid negative stereotypes, and to be seen as competent and/or valuable, highlighting ongoing fears of discrimination and unconscious bias in the workplace.

Key Points: 
  • The Uncovering Culture study comes ten years after Deloitte collaborated with Kenji Yoshino on the Uncovering Talent study.
  • The study also offers three tangible actions that leaders can take to build a culture of greater authenticity and achieve better workforce outcomes.
  • Covering in the workplace remains a widespread practice across demographics and is most prevalent among individuals with multiple marginalized identities.
  • 56% of workers say that the need to cover at work also negatively impacts their commitment to their organization.
