Gender Data & Diagnostics

GCN’s Gender Data & Diagnostics initiative supports organizations in generating workplace gender data that uncovers inequities, identifies barriers, and guides meaningful reforms. By helping companies measure representation, pay equity, access to benefits, leadership pathways, and workplace culture, we enable data-driven decisions that accelerate progress toward gender-inclusive workplaces.

Our diagnostic tools form the foundation for evidence-based policy development, accountability, and continuous improvement.

This Initiative Helps Organizations:

●Identify gender gaps across roles, levels, and departments

●Understand systemic barriers affecting women’s participation

●Assess workplace safety, culture, and retention challenges

●Develop evidence-based diversity and inclusion strategies

Track year-on-year progress through measurable indicators
