Bias Detection and Correction
Regularly audit review data to identify patterns of potential disparate impact. Look for differences across protected characteristics, teams, managers, or regions.
When bias is detected, implement corrective actions such as recalibration, retraining, and process adjustments. Ensure accountability for managers and system changes to prevent recurrence.
Establish metrics to measure bias reduction, promotion equity, and representation in development opportunities. Create governance structures with clear roles and oversight.
Provide ongoing training on inclusive evaluation practices and psychological safety. Cultivate a culture where feedback and diverse perspectives are valued.
Invite employees and managers to participate in equity audits. Use their insights to improve processes and reduce bias in reviews over time.
