Human Capital Metrics Instructions

The following section is designed to collect information on your human capital metrics.


About this section. In this section, you will be asked to report total counts for intersectionality (gender: female, male, non-binary, unknown; and ethnicity: Black, Asian, Native Hawaiian/other Pacific Islander, Native American/Alaskan Native, Latino or Hispanic, two or more races/ethnicities, Other, Unknown) for your workforce. You have the option to report human capital metrics based on your organization’s fiscal year rather than the traditional calendar year (Jan. 1, 2024, to Dec. 31, 2024).
