CULTURE is the fundamental principle that guides how individuals act. Cultural diversity in the workplace is caused by employees' habits, attitudes, traditions, or beliefs depending on their race, age, ethnicity, religion, or gender (Sawyer, 2020). Employees are believed to have more similarities than differences, yet the disparities might occasionally overshadow the similarities. While these diverse variations might make for a more lively office, they can also cause a slew of issues due to cultural conflict.
