Understanding **diversity metrics** is central to People Analytics. These metrics—such as **gender ratio** and **ethnic distribution**—enable you to assess representation and inclusivity within the workforce. By quantifying diversity, organizations can identify imbalances, track progress toward equity goals, and inform decision-making that fosters a more inclusive environment.

import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# Example DataFrame of employee demographics
data = {
    "EmployeeID": [101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108],
    "Gender": ["Female", "Male", "Female", "Male", "Female", "Female", "Male", "Male"],
    "Age": [34, 27, 29, 41, 36, 28, 32, 38],
    "Ethnicity": ["Hispanic", "White", "Black", "Asian", "White", "Black", "Asian", "Hispanic"]
}
df = pd.DataFrame(data)

# Basic matplotlib chart setup
plt.figure(figsize=(6,4))
plt.bar(df["Gender"].value_counts().index, df["Gender"].value_counts().values)
plt.title("Employee Count by Gender")
plt.xlabel("Gender")
plt.ylabel("Count")
plt.show()

plt.figure(figsize=(6,6))
plt.pie(df["Ethnicity"].value_counts().values, labels=df["Ethnicity"].value_counts().index, autopct='%1.1f%%')
plt.title("Ethnicity Distribution")
plt.show()

When interpreting diversity visualizations, focus on the **proportions** and **representation** of each group rather than just raw counts. Bar charts can quickly reveal gender imbalances, while pie charts highlight the presence or absence of particular ethnicities. Communicating these results effectively means translating visuals into actionable insights—such as noting underrepresented groups or shifts in workforce composition—to guide leadership in setting and evaluating diversity initiatives.
