Expanding Beyond Quotas The Introduction of Inclusion Metrics

Gender quotas have been a stepping stone towards achieving gender diversity in workplaces. However, the evolving landscape of inclusion prompts organizations to move beyond simple numeric representation. The next steps involve developing comprehensive inclusion metrics that measure not only the presence of diverse genders but also the quality of engagement, participation, and the degree of inclusivity in the work environment. Such metrics could encompass factors like pay equity, access to mentorship, and representation in leadership roles, offering a more detailed picture of an organization's commitment to inclusion.
