Ethnic Differences in the Workplace Environment by Employees in Two Municipal Workforces

Jamie K. Forst

Wayne E. K. Lehman

Texas Christian University

With the Hispanic population becoming the fastest growing ethnicfaction in the civilian labor force, research findings from workforces that are predominately Hispanic are becoming greater in number This raises the possibility that findings from Hispanic research samples may not generalize to workforces that are primarily non-Hispanic, and vice versa. Evidence is presented to suggest that differences between Hispanic and non-Hipanic employees, among responses to several industrial and organizational research scales and personal background variables, are very slight. These findings are advancedfrom several hundred employees in two municipal workforces, one that was 70% Hispanic and one that was 14% Hispanic.
