Velocity of Promotions & Attrition Study
Timing Analysis
Velocity of Promotions and Attrition Study
There are a variety of useful metrics related to the evaluation of diversity and inclusion outcomes. One particularly informative and underused metric relates to the amount of time it takes for critical employment outcomes to happen. Timing analysis can identify critical barriers to achieving diversity goals related to a wide variety of employee outcomes, including time to promotion and retention.
The promotion velocity study will review whether sex and race/ethnicity differences exist in the duration of time (e.g., average) to be promoted from one job/level to the next job/level. The use of significance tests (e.g., t-test) will be used to determine if there are significant differences in time to promote between protected groups.
The survival analysis will review whether sex and race/ethnicity differences exist in the duration of time (e.g., average) to turnover from a job/level. The use of significance tests (e.g., t-test) will be used to determine if there are statistically significant differences in the duration of time to turnover protected groups.
Multiple years of hire, promotion and termination data may be used for this analysis.
