Abstract: This paper unfolded the lived experiences of marginalized workers in a diverse and inclusive workplace and how business establishments implement diversity and inclusion in employing marginalized workers. It encompassed discovering how various organizations define the concept of equal work for all and to what extent it covers. Despite emerging literature on workplace diversity and inclusion, marginalized workers face many forms of discrimination before, during, and after employment. Most of them revealed being outnumbered by the majority, still having a feudalistic nature, having limited social mobility, lack of company protection, mismatched jobs, access concerns, and discrimination. The researchers aim to pave the way for business establishments to uphold the significance of implementing diversity and inclusion that could bring value to organizations. From there on, this study may serve as a foundation for developing and reviewing the existing policies of business establishments eliminating the margin towards cultivating a society that embraces all.
