Abstract Inclusion has moved to the forefront of human resource management in both public and private sector organizations around the world. A fractured research literature has arisen from a succession of diversity policies, contradictory findings, competing goals, contested definitions, and varying institutional factors and organizational cultures. This article seeks to examine the level of inclusion and the connection between inclusion and effort in the Ontario Public Service (OPS). Our findings show that increased feelings of inclusion are positively related with employee efforts in their job.
