DEI statement lacks quantified diversity data
This check looks for a diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) statement on your careers, about or culture content, and whether it's backed by actual numbers, such as workforce composition, gender pay gap, or hiring breakdown by group. A DEI statement was found here, but no quantified data accompanies it.
Why this matters
Some jurisdictions require pay gap reporting; for example, UK employers with 250 or more employees must publish gender pay gap data. Regulators such as the US FTC can also take an interest in marketing claims that cannot be substantiated. Whether any of this applies depends on your size and location. Separately, a vague statement without numbers may read as unsupported to candidates.
How to fix it
Your HR team should publish a short diversity report with real figures: workforce by gender, ethnicity and seniority level, your gender pay gap percentage, and hiring percentages by group. This is roughly four hours of work if the underlying HR data already exists, longer if it needs to be pulled together first.
