Abstract(s)
Globalmente, o tema diversidade tem sido debatido em todos os lugares, tais como: governo, universidades, empresas, partidos políticos, entre outros. Assim, o presente trabalho foi baseado num estudo de caso sobre uma empresa de Tecnologia da Informação, sediada na cidade de Belo Horizonte (Brasil). Este estudo, de carácter quantitativo (n = 57) e qualitativo (n = 6), tem como objetivo analisar como a questão de género, identidade e conflito trabalho-família (TF) e família-trabalho (FT) estão presentes dentro do setor da tecnologia e verificar quais os efeitos destas variáveis nos comportamentos dos indivíduos, principalmente, relacionados ao sexismo ambivalente. Procurou ainda entender-se como o conflito TF-FT atravessa e impacta a vida dos trabalhadores do setor de Tecnologia da Informação, favorecendo ou não a diversidade de género, e como as ações afirmativas relacionadas ao género são percebidas por estes indivíduos. Os resultados mostram que o neosexismo está cada vez mais presente dentro das organizações e as pessoas negam o facto de preconceitos e discriminações ainda estarem presentes na sociedade, principalmente em empresas com o modelo cultural de startups. Os temas diversidade e preconceito continuam latentes. Somente com estudos e ações que, realmente modifiquem os comportamentos sexistas, poderemos caminhar para uma sociedade onde todos gozam de direitos iguais.

Thus, the present work was based on a case study about an Information Technology company, based in the city of Belo Horizonte (Brazil). This quantitative (n = 57) and qualitative (n = 6) study aims to analyze how the issue of gender, identity and work-family (WF) and family-work (FW) conflict are present within the technology sector and to verify the effects of these variables on the behavior of individuals, mainly related to ambivalent sexism. We also sought to understand how the WF-FW conflict crosses and impacts the lives of Information Technology workers, whether or not they favor gender diversity, and how gender-affirmative actions are perceived by these individuals. The results show that neosexism is increasingly present within organizations and people deny the fact that prejudice and discrimination are still present in society, especially in companies with the cultural model of startups. The themes diversity and prejudice remain latent. Only through studies and actions that really change sexist behavior can we move towards a society where everyone enjoys equal rights.
