Departed Permanent Employees: Involuntary (OI7225)

This metric is intended to capture number of involuntary departures from the organization. Involuntary departure is defined as those employees dismissed with cause, including the elimination of a position.

This metric is multi-dimensional in regards to the five dimensions of impact: it may help describe the WHO dimension when the stakeholder group represented by the metric is the stakeholder group targeted by the investment or organization. It may also help measure the HOW MUCH Scale dimension, which helps estimate the number of the targeted stakeholders experiencing the outcome. For more on the alignment of IRIS metrics to the five dimensions of impact, see specific guidance document. No single metric is sufficient to understand an impact; rather, metrics are selected as a set across all dimensions of impact. When possible, the selection of metrics to measure and describe the five dimensions should be based on best practice and evidence.
