Stigma in the workplace damages individual's reputation without considering employee is right or not. Stigma is usually called as “Damgalama” in Turkish related literature. In general, stigmatised people in the workplace feel like outsider, belittled, underrated by supervisors and colleaques. These people think that they are hard done and marginalised by others because of their differentness as language, tongue, religion, nation, sectarian, political opinion, gender, sexual preference, physical and medical barries.
