Statement: Updating quantitative data collection tools

Statement published 2 November 2022

In April this year, we published a call for inputs on developing our quantitative data collection questionnaire that measures the diversity of the broadcasting workforce. We used the information provided in response, as well as input from internal and external experts, to inform the changes set out in this statement.

All the changes to the way we collect this data have been made to help us achieve our objectives to identify where underrepresentation for certain groups of people may exist in broadcasting and identify barriers that individuals or groups may face in entering and/or progressing within the industry.

The updated quantitative data questionnaire will be sent to broadcasters in April 2023 for completion.
