Through qualitative and quantitative data collection methods, including surveys and interviews, the research seeks to identify the prevalence of unconscious bias in recruitment and promotion processes, as well as the impact on workforce diversity. The study also examines how healthcare professionals recognize and address unconscious biases and explores the role of organizational policies in mitigating these biases. Findings are expected to contribute to a deeper understanding of the challenges faced in achieving equitable healthcare workplaces and provide recommendations for improving hiring and promotional practices in the healthcare sector.
