Data-Driven Diversity and Retention
Objective
To uncover insights into workforce diversity, engagement, and turnover to guide HR policy and leadership decisions.
Business Problem
HR leaders struggled to quantify the impact of inclusion and engagement programs. Attrition and promotion patterns were anecdotal rather than data-backed.
Analytical Approach
- Combined HRIS, performance, and engagement survey data.
- Modelled attrition probability and promotion trends.
- Measured equity metrics across departments and roles.
Key Metrics
- Representation Increase: +7%
- Attrition Rate: 8.4%
- Tenure Gap: −1.8 years (by gender)
- Engagement Impact on Retention: +11%
Insight
Engagement scores were the strongest predictor of retention. Departments with low representation also had higher turnover, highlighting the link between diversity and stability.
Business Value
Workforce analytics empowered HR to make evidence-based decisions, measure progress, and build a fairer, more resilient organisation.
