top 10 Measures for gender diversity

I have recently published a top 10 of gender diversity measures, below, which give a good indication of business diversity. Other measures are also available, shown below. 
  1. Proportion of women in total employee base
  2. Gender Pay Gap
  3. Competitive ratio of new hires (those who are offered divided by those who applied) by men and women
  4. Proportion of women in each level of the business (including non-execs), and per occupational group
  5. Average years of employment by men and women
  6. Competitive ratio of promotions by men and women
  7. Percentage of employees who return to work after career/parental leave
  8. Average overtime work hours by men and women (where appropriate and able to be measured)
  9. Percentage of men and women who take child care leave
  10. Percentage of men and women who take other measures for work life balance (e.g. flexi time, condensed hours, or others)
Contact me if you would like to find out more.

A number of measurement tools exist to help inform companies to see if they are inclusive – such as:

  • Women’s Business Council, Balancing the SySTEM 
  • Global Diversity and Inclusion Benchmarks (GDIB)
  • RAEng Diversity and Inclusion Progression Framework 
  • WISE 10 STEPS & the Diagnostic Tool 
  • BS76005:2017 Valuing People Through Diversity and Inclusion, 2017
