Understanding Employee Demographics: What Does It Mean for Your Organization?

Dear all,

Can I know what is meant by demographic study of employees in an organization?

Hi,

It's a statistic characterizing human populations or segments of human populations broken down by age, sex, income, etc. Demographic segments for employees in an organization may be distributed on the basis of ethnicity, age, education, geography, etc. After the compilation of this data, you can even perform different kinds of analyses as per your requirements.

Please let me know if we can share more information on this; that would be great.

Dear Shikhambri,

Thank you very much for providing me with these details. I have collected the information, but I am unsure of how to compare it. I am conducting a study on employees who will remain with the organization based on their location. I have gathered data on those who have left and those who have chosen to stay. How can I effectively compare this information?

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards

Hi dear,

Is it some project you are working on? As per my understanding, it is a research-based project as you mentioned studying the reasons behind why employees left. Have employees submitted their resignations, and what are the reasons behind them? Also, you should identify the reasons why employees are choosing to stay.

Once you have the questionnaire filled out, there are various ways we can compare the data, depending on your requirements. It is crucial for us to clearly understand the motive behind the comparison.

Why and what are we comparing? What kind of results do we need – numerical or subjective? You are familiar with all these details.

If you wish, you can reach me at shikhambri@yahoo.com.

Hello,

It's simple. Generally, the demographic factors will depict an employee's personal information such as age, gender, qualifications, salary, designation, etc. These aspects are compared with the questions framed in our questionnaire, and based on the responses, we will provide the results.

For example, if we are conducting research on the topic of performance appraisal, we will compare the age factor with the performance appraisal method implemented in a particular organization. Different age groups will provide feedback in varying forms, allowing us to assess whether there is any bias in the current appraisal system.

In this way, we can analyze by comparing both the questionnaire and the demographic factors. Are you clear or do you still have any doubts? If you have any concerns, please feel free to contact me via email at mohancitizen1502@gmail.com.

Dear...

It is your economic background, i.e., did you come from poor roots, middle class, or upper class. Only in addition to how much money your grandparents and parents may or may not have had, it takes into account social reasons as to why your economic background is such. For example, not to imply they are any worse off as a family, but a poor family coming from the inner city has slightly different reasons as to why they are poor compared to a poor family in the mountains in Virginia. Both are considered poor, face a lot of the same problems, but technically when the reasons are broken down, it can be seen they are 'poor' for different reasons. The same can be said at the other end of the spectrum. Growing up, were you middle or upper class in a nice neighborhood going to good schools? Was it your family that had money, or were you raised modestly with a good work ethic and the drive to make your own millions - old money versus new money. These things impact and are impacted by your social surroundings.
