In the year 2008 the Deutsche Telekom Group stands as one of the largest enterprises with strong principles of equalization among enterprises like Ford, Deutsche Bank etc. This equalization refers to the variations of lifestyles – heterosexuals, gays, lesbians and transgender. Therefore the Deutsche Telekom Group as a Global Player carries the responsibility to show social responsibility towards society. The engagement of every single one is being supported to create open handling on the job and to strengthen tolerance on every level of the enterprise.

“Queer” means to be somewhat different, crazy, even strange.
In the last couple years the gay community managed to establish this rather negative touched term as a term that stands for “being sexually different”, “live different”.

This term also includes the joy of living a different lifestyle without excluding any social group.

The network voted for the name T-QueerNet from 18 suggestions. Because of the CI/CD rules the name was changed to QueerBeet (Being employee Telekom).
