Socio–Economic Problems of Transgender in Workplace
Dr. K. Leelavathy
Abstract :
Transgender is also a part of the society and they have equal right to everything in the world that is available to all other persons. The presence of such transgender is not new, but their presence is there from the time immemorial as could be seen from several scripts, probably because the nature requires such a class to maintain the equiliium. The most important aspect we have to think is the discrimination. The discrimination based on their class and gender makes the transgender community one of the most disempowered group in Indian Society. In the light of the Constitutional guarantees provided, there is no reason why Transgender Community should not get their basic rights, which included Right to Personal Liberty, Dignity, Freedom of Expression, Right to Education and Empowerment, Right against Violence, discrimination and exploitation. This paper will review the history of the term, and focus on how it has been used in a variety of contexts, including health care and specifically within HIV prevention and treatment to describe not only identities but risk factors; within mental health as a condition and to describe sets of behaviors; and socio-politically both within the communities and the larger society
