Hiring dashboards provide statistics, trends, and comparative analysis for various personnel groups by organization (unit, school, or Universitywide), race/ethnicity¹, and gender². Hiring and headcount trends provide trend lines to compare hiring and headcount percentages by organizations, personnel groups, race/ethnicity, and gender.

<sup>1. Race and ethnicity refer to different types of categorizations. "Race" refers to socially constructed divisions of humanity to construct hierarchies and is inextricably linked to histories of oppression, enslavement, conquest, and genocides. "Ethnicity" refers to self-defined and shared groupings based in cultural origins and expressions, including ancestry, language, region, migration, foodways, literature, and music (Diversity Style Guide; University of Maryland, College Park Editorial Style Guidelines; California State University Diversity/Inclusivity Style Guide; Flanagin, Frey, & Christiansen, 2021)

2. UMB recognizes gender diversity beyond genders. Employee gender identity reported in our HR systems is derived from government-issued documentation and populated in PeopleSoft from this data; it is not self-reported. Future work will involve aligning collected and reported employee gender identities with actual gender identities.</sup>
