Do companies switch on Gender Identity And Sexual Orientation Fields in ESS?

Summary

Hidden by default

Content

Hello,

Researching this topic it appears these fields can be included in the biographical information screen to allow employees to update (if they wish to) although are hidden 'out of the box'

Have companies switched these on? If so for what reason (diversity reporting etc?) and any feedback from employees as to why a company is 'asking for this information' and what they do with it?

Keen to hear thoughts from other organisations,

Thanks

Kevin
