The Movements and Change dashboard helps you track and analyse workforce mobility across your organisation. Use this dashboard to monitor job changes, attribute modifications, employee transitions, and overall workforce fluidity to support workforce planning and organisational agility.
This dashboard is designed for HR leaders, workforce planning analysts, and talent management teams who need to understand how roles, responsibilities, and employee circumstances evolve over time.

Top Line KPI Metrics
The dashboard displays four key performance indicators that provide a comprehensive view of workforce movements and changes:
Job Attribute Change Events – Total count of individual attribute modifications to employee jobs. Each change to job title, location, pay grade, remuneration, or employment conditions represents one event. Measures the volume of job-related changes across your workforce.
Job Change Events – Total count of distinct dates when one or more job attributes changed. Groups attribute changes that occurred simultaneously into single events. Measures how many times employees experienced job transitions regardless of how many attributes changed.
Headcount with Change Event – Total number of active employees who experienced at least one job change during the selected period. Indicates how many individuals were affected by workforce movements regardless of how many changes they experienced.
Mobility Rate – Percentage of active workforce that experienced a change event. Calculated as headcount with changes divided by total active headcount. Indicates overall workforce fluidity and the pace of organisational change.
Visualisations
The dashboard is organised across three tabs providing different perspectives on workforce movements.
| Visualisation | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Overview Tab | |
| Job Attribute Changes | Stacked column chart showing monthly change volume color-coded by attribute type (job attributes, remuneration changes). Reveals seasonal patterns in workforce changes and identifies periods of high organisational activity. |
| Mobility Rate by Gender | Bar chart comparing mobility rates across gender segments (female, male, non-binary, other, undisclosed). Shows whether workforce changes affect different demographic groups equally. |
| Workforce Starters and Leavers (Headcount) | Stacked column chart displaying monthly new hire counts (starters) versus termination counts (leavers). Helps identify net workforce growth or reduction periods and hiring/attrition patterns. |
| Deep Dive Tab | |
| Job Attribute Change Events by [Dimension] | Bar chart comparing total attribute change volume across your selected dimension (e.g., department, location, job title). |
| Job Change Events by [Dimension] | Bar chart showing distinct change event counts segmented by your chosen dimension. |
| Headcount with Change Event by [Dimension] | Bar chart analyzing how many employees experienced changes broken down by dimension. |
| Mobility Rate by [Dimension] | Bar chart comparing workforce mobility rates across different segments for benchmarking. |
| Mobility Detail Pivot Table | Customizable pivot table for multi-dimensional analysis of change patterns across job attributes, demographics, and organisational segments simultaneously. |
| Row Data Tab | |
| Mobility Data Detail Table | Granular table listing individual change events with person name, position title, supervisor, change date, attribute type, specific change event, previous value, new value, and employee demographics for detailed audit and analysis. |
Filters
Use filters to narrow your analysis to specific time periods, employee segments, organizational units, or change types:
Date-based filters:
- Date (default: last 365 days) – Filter data by specific date ranges to analyze change patterns over time
Organizational filters:
- Business Entity – Filter by legal entity or company
- Business Unit – Filter by department or division
- Location – Filter by office, region, or geographic location
- Supervisor Name – Filter by reporting manager to analyze team changes
- Supervisor Status – Filter by manager employment status
Job characteristics:
- Position Title – Filter by role or job title
- Pay Grade – Filter by salary band or grade level
- Employment Condition – Filter by employment type (full-time, part-time, casual, contractor)
- Work Class – Filter by work classification category
- Work Type – Filter by work arrangement (permanent, temporary, fixed-term)
- Work Right – Filter by visa or work authorization status
- Probation Status – Filter by probationary period status
- FTE – Filter by full-time equivalent percentage
Demographic filters:
- Age Group – Filter by employee age bands
- Gender – Filter by employee gender
- Leave Type – Filter to analyze changes for employees on specific leave types
Change-specific filters:
- Attribute Type – Filter by type of change (job attributes, remuneration changes)
- Change Event – Filter by specific changes (base salary, location, position title, pay grade, employment condition, FTE, supervisor, work class, pay cycle, additions, etc.)
Deep Dive Options
The Deep Dive tab includes a dynamic parameter called Show Deep Dive By that lets you slice all visualisations by different dimensions. Select from these options to compare mobility patterns across segments:
- Business Entity
- Business Unit
- Department
- Location
- Supervisor Name
- Position Title
- Pay Grade
- Employment Condition
- Age Group
- Gender
- Attribute Type
- Change Event
- Custom fields for Employees
This parameter updates all Deep Dive visualisations simultaneously, making it easy to identify which teams, locations, or roles experience the most changes and compare mobility rates across organisational segments.

Understanding Key Calculations
Change Event Definitions
Job Attribute Change Event represents a single modification to an employee's job, job conditions, or remuneration. Each time a specific attribute changes (e.g., pay grade updated, location transferred, base salary adjusted), one event is recorded. If multiple attributes change simultaneously, each change counts as a separate event.
Job Change Event groups all attribute changes that occurred on the same date for the same job into a single event. When an employee receives a promotion involving title change, pay grade increase, and salary adjustment all effective on the same date, this counts as one job change event consisting of three attribute change events.
Change Event (shown in filter) represents the specific type of modification including base salary, pay grade, location, position title, employment condition, FTE, supervisor, work class, pay cycle, review cycle, remuneration type, additions, base hourly rate, and remuneration breakdowns.
Mobility Metrics
Headcount with Change Event counts unique active employees who experienced at least one job change during the selected period. An employee who had multiple changes (e.g., location transfer in January and promotion in March) counts once in this metric. This indicates how many individuals were affected by workforce movements.
Mobility Rate divides headcount with changes by total active headcount to calculate the percentage of workforce experiencing mobility. Higher rates indicate more organisational fluidity and frequent role changes, while lower rates suggest workforce stability. Typical causes of high mobility include organisational restructures, growth phases, or seasonal business cycles.
Starters and Leavers
Starters represents new hires joining the organisation (new job records created). This includes external hires and internal transfers into new positions.
Leavers represents employees departing the organisation (job end dates recorded). This includes voluntary resignations, terminations, retirements, and internal transfers out of positions.
The net difference between starters and leavers indicates workforce growth (positive) or reduction (negative) for the period.
Attribute Types
Changes are categorized into two main attribute types:
Job Attributes – Non-compensation changes including position title, location, employment condition, FTE, work class, work type, work right, supervisor, pay grade, pay cycle, and review cycle. These modifications reflect role changes, organisational structure adjustments, or employment term updates.
Remuneration Changes – Compensation-related modifications including base salary, base hourly rate, remuneration type, additions (bonuses, allowances), and remuneration breakdowns by amount or rate. These changes reflect pay adjustments, promotions, market corrections, or incentive plan updates.
Time and Effective Dating
All change metrics use the effective date of the change (when the change took effect) rather than the date the change was processed or approved. This ensures metrics reflect when organisational impact occurred, not administrative timing.
The dashboard tracks changes over time using monthly aggregations. Month-to-month comparisons in KPI tiles show whether change volumes and mobility rates are increasing or decreasing, helping identify trends in workforce fluidity.
