Derived from the work of the World Economic Forum International Business Council, the Global Reporting Initiative, and other sources, the KPIs include three high-level measurements that spotlight progress through an organization’s structure:
- The percentage of representation on an organization’s board
- The percentage of representation by employee category
- Pay equality: the ratio of compensation by employee category (i.e. equal pay for equal work)

Joining GDKA follows H&R Block’s announcement of its Equality Action Plan, which outlines specific actions the company is taking to create racial equality, both within the company and in the communities it serves. It also aligns with H&R Block’s 100% score on the Corporate Equality Index, as well as its participation as a Catalyst CEO Champions for Change, pledging to increase the representation of women, including women of color, in its senior leadership and board positions.
