Monzo reporting diversity statistics

I just had a read of this (prompted by a comment on another thread).

They report the percentage of people who identify as women, specifically those in leadership roles and those in tech. There's no indication if these are actually women.

This makes the data useless for a person trying to work out if they are getting a better proportion of women in the workforce.

Just thought people might find this interesting!

Yep, the penny is going to be slow to drop though.

I've been boycotting Monzo for a while now. They did something dickish to do with TRAs but I've forgotten exactly what it was.

Don’t huge companies have to publish figures about difference in pay between man and women.
Self ID is not legal in the UK so are they legally allowed to use those who “identify” as women?

I've forgotten exactly what it was.

I remember Bezzalell because I’d been thinking about using them. They said they wanted to increase the number of staff identifying as women. Then they tweeted TWAW/TMAW. A customer asked if they had 50% men & 50% trans women in senior positions, would that be ok. They said yes.

Re the reporting rules, I think it is actually defined legally as the gender pay gap so I think it must depend on what the gender question is. I have been looking at the ACAS guide

www.acas.org.uk/media/4764/Managing-gender-pay-reporting/pdf/Managing_gender_pay_reporting_07.02.19.pdf

but I can’t see any guidance about recording or reporting gender. Mandatory reporting only applies to organisations employing more than 250 people so it is very unlikely that trans or non binary people will distort the overall gap but might it affect small sub sections of the workforce in an organisation?

The solution is to use the ‘different to assigned at birth’ question but lots of people here leave that question blank.
