Evaluation
What gets measured, gets managed.
We created Gender Fair to serve as the standard for measuring an organization’s investment in fairness.
Our holistic evaluation allows us to work with all organizations to benchmark and improve – tracking gender metrics, providing data insights & expertise, and ensuring continuous improvement.

“I’m excited about the partnership with Gender Fair … I describe it to people as kind of the good housekeeping seal of approval, which is to say we stand for something.”
Laurie Kowalesvky
VP Marketing, CMO, Lilly Biomedicines
“We’re so excited about Gender Fair… we sell products that we build and we also work on enterprises in 191 countries around the world. So think about the scale of selling products and changing organizations and then you take an organization like Gender Fair that creates not only the logo for consumers to maybe change consumer preference, or at least get informed consumers to know who are you buying from and what’s their perspective and stance on women and equality, but also for enterprises, large
companies that are trying to transform and to try to create more diverse workplace...
People who want a better world not only for themselves but for their children and further generations, we get to choose, and what better way to choose and show the world how important this is to us than where we spend our dollars.”
Toni Townes-Whitley
President of US Regulated Industries, Microsoft
"As women who shop, make decisions, groceries, clothes, you name it, we’re now more socially conscious spenders and I think that is very important.”
Joy Fitzgerald
Chief Diversity Officer, Eli Lilly & Co
"We were delighted to be the first nonprofit to be certified Gender Fair in 2020, but we weren’t satisfied. Based on feedback from Gender Fair® and input from our own employees, we made changes and are thrilled to have achieved a near perfect score in 2021. We increased our parental leave, fostered greater diversity on our Board of Trustees and continued to narrow our gender pay gap down to one percent. Gender equity is a priority for Save the Children in our work with children and communities across the globe, and we are proud to stand by these principles for our workforce as well.”
Debbie Pollock-Berry
Chief Human Resources Officer, Save The Children
