a) Describe the legislative and ethical rights and responsibilities of employees, employers and clients to ensure a culturally safe and diverse work environment and care experience. List in your answer the types of requirements that must be adhered to.

b)      What actions can a client take if they feel an organisation is being discriminatory and not taking due care to meet their cultural needs? 

 

Cultural safety is a concept recognized in all health care settings. Employees, employees, and clients have legislative and ethical responsibilities of maintaining a culturally safe and diverse environment and care experience in an organization. Their primary responsibility towards achieving this is comprehending individual culture and its influence on the way people behave, feel, and think. Employees, employers, and clients are obligated to reflect on their beliefs, attitudes, and cultures about others in order to create an all-friendly environment. They are also supposed to embrace a respectful, open, value free, and clear communication while developing trust on everyone's perspective. Since stereotyping is a common barrier to the development of a culturally safe and diverse environment, it is the ethical responsibility of every employee, employer, and client to recognize and avoid stereotypical barriers and understanding the influence of cultural shock. 

A client who feels that an organization is being discriminatory and do not take sufficient care to address their cultural needs should file a lawsuit against the entire organization or a section of employees or management responsible for these actions. If the discrimination infringes federal laws, the client can file a charge with the EEOC. One can also make a record of the offensive action and consider alternative action against the responsible parties.
