Pressure is building for companies to provide more transparency into the diversity of their workforce. Along with the #MeToo and BLM social movements, there are economic reasons why diversity data can be an indicator of company health.
“A McKinsey study found that companies in the top quartile for gender diversity in corporate leadership had a 21% likelihood of outperforming bottom-quartile industry peers on profitability. Similarly, leaders in racial and ethnic diversity were 33% more likely to outperform peers on profitability.” via As You Sow
Whether from a consumer, social advocacy, or shareholder pressures, a small set of companies have stepped forward to create ‘Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity Reports’ to publicly share their current status and what they are doing to improve.
We want to make it a little bit easier for more companies to do so.
Here’s the good news: If you have more than 100 employees, you are already required to submit diversity data to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. It is provided in an annual report called the EEO-1. It looks like the image below.
Here’s the better news: We can turn this awful-looking PDF report into an attractive, interactive, branded Diversity Report that can tell the story of your company’s efforts.
If your company is not ready to share this information, the decision might get taken out of its hands. Recently there have been more shareholder votes to get this information released to the public. Some companies are concerned that this diversity data could be taken out of context: “The EEO-1 report just in and of itself can’t tell the full story regarding any one particular company’s DE&I program, efforts, or successes.” (Rae Vann in Bloomberg Law)
This is precisely why it is worth telling the complete data story with a tool like Juicebox.
