Bisexual employees are less likely to be out at work, but those who are report high levels of discrimination

A new analysis of data collected in May 2021 from 935 LGBT adults in the workforce found that only about one-third (36%) of cisgender bisexual employees were out to their supervisors, compared to three-quarters (75%) of cisgender gay men and lesbians. 

Bisexual employees overall are significantly less likely to report experiencing discrimination and harassment in the workplace than gay and lesbian employees. However, that difference disappears when looking at the experiences of employees who are open about being LGB at work. One-third of bisexual employees (33%) and 37% of gay and lesbian employees report experiencing workplace discrimination.
