Situation
The company proactively solicited DCI to examine their active selection and promotion procedures to determine if it was actively working to disadvantage members of a protected class. Adverse Impact is a practice that affects a group of people despite the intention of the rule to be neutral.
DCI's Solution
DCI launched an investigation into the organization’s application, promotion, and termination decisions, identifying areas of concern from a statistical and a practical standpoint. Following the investigation, DCI identified areas of concern and provided best practice recommendations on personnel decisions to mitigate their risk moving forward.
DCI Statistical Experts evaluated which stage of the hiring or selection process may be the root cause of adverse impact and was able to proactively assist the company. The company was able to effectively examine their selection and promotion procedures and determined there was not adverse impact at the conclusion of the analysis.
Results
The company's awareness of the seemingly neutral hiring and selection decisions that could adversely impact individuals and groups increased exponentially. DCI will be able to more efficiently assist the company in situations going forward, given the experience with the unique data and processes of the company.
