Workforce Movement at a Glance

The dashboard opens with a summary of headcount activity, highlighting overall workforce size, year-over-year changes, new hires, and attrition. This provides a quick understanding of whether the company is growing, stabilizing, or experiencing shifts that may require HR attention.

Seniority Level Structure

A quick look at seniority levels shows how employees are distributed across associate roles, supervisory positions, middle management, senior leadership, and top management. This insight supports succession planning and ensures leadership development efforts are aligned with organizational needs.

Year-to-Date Headcount & Attrition Trends

A monthly trend line visualizes how the workforce changes over time. HR can easily spot periods of growth, hiring peaks, or attrition increases. This enables more proactive planning and better decision-making throughout the year.

Why the Workforce Overview Matters


By turning raw HR data into easy-to-digest visuals, the Workforce Overview helps HR teams and leaders understand their organization on a deeper level. It supports more informed planning, strengthens workforce strategies, and ensures decisions are backed by real insights rather than assumptions.
