Insights®

EDGE Insights® enables a deep dive into detailed workforce analytics, powerful benchmarking against peers and the EDGE Global Standard, identifying new insights and impactful action plans.

What is measured?

EDGE Insights® measures and analyzes four diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I) related indicators.

Representation

Along the pipeline, across different types of jobs and different levels of responsibility.

Pay Equity

Equal pay for equivalent work.

Effectiveness

Ensuring equitable career flows when it comes to pay, recruitment and promotion, training, flexible working and organizational culture.

Inclusiveness

As reflected in employees’ experience in terms of career development opportunities.

Representation is a measure of diversity, Pay Equity is about equal pay for equivalent work, 
Effectiveness is effective processes to ensure equitable career flows and Inclusiveness is about the culture and experience of working within the organization.

EDGE and EDGEplus

EDGE Insights looks at DE&I through the lens of both gender and intersectional equity. This is because it is important to acknowledge all components of an individual’s identity such as gender identity, LGBTQ+, ethnic background and origin, age, working with a disability status, and nationality.

It is also possible to look at gender alone for organizations where their HR systems are only set to manage a binary view of gender. In some instances, this can be the necessary first step of DE&I assessment and analysis as gender can be legally tracked in all geographies and industries.

EDGE (gender binary)

Looking at women and men as two homogeneous groups, our data-led approach illuminates the actual level of equity and how disparities might be addressed.

EDGEplus (intersectional equity)

EDGEplus uses a more detailed analysis of diversity, encompassing gender identity, LGBTQ+, ethnic background and origin, age, working with a disability status and nationality.

360 Degree Action Plan

By taking a holistic look at your organization, including statistical data, policies and practices, infrastructure and workplace experience, the resulting DE&I assessment of the gaps between an organization’s intention, experience, and impact in DE&I will result in a recommendation for an effective and targeted DE&I action plan.
