Abstract
Transgender and Intersexual are subject to the workplace discrimination in Pakistan. This phenomenon is increasing day by day. The efforts of state and society are all going in vain to make them save from workplace victimization due to their sexual-orientation. It is considered the tabooistic topic and nobody talks about transgenderism and intersexualism in the sophisticate circle of society. This topic is least studied and remains swept under the carpet. This qualitative study is exploratory in nature and recruitment of participant was possible by using the purposive sampling. The targeted population was employed in different organizations. Six respondents were interviewed. The study concluded that this sexual-minority is human capital and facing workplace victimization.
