Support Inclusive Workplaces with Better HR Tools
While Noova is not a dedicated D&I platform, our comprehensive HR tools - from organization management to engagement surveys - give you the foundation to build and nurture a more inclusive workplace.
Why D&I Matters - and Where HR Tools Fit In
Scattered Employee Data
Without a centralized HR platform, organizations struggle to understand their workforce composition across departments, positions, and levels.
Limited Employee Voice
Employees may not feel safe sharing honest feedback about workplace culture without proper anonymous survey channels.
Inconsistent Processes
Ad-hoc recruitment and compensation practices can inadvertently lead to uneven outcomes when there is no structured, transparent system in place.
No Data to Guide Decisions
Without centralized HR reporting, leaders lack the workforce data they need to make informed decisions about inclusion initiatives.
How Noova's HR Platform Supports Inclusive Practices

However, our core HR features - organization management, employee engagement surveys, recruitment tools, and compensation management - provide the data infrastructure and employee feedback channels that organizations need to support their inclusion goals.

How Organizations Use Noova to Support Inclusion
Using Engagement Surveys to Understand Workplace Culture
Challenge:
A mid-size company suspects that some teams have lower morale and a weaker sense of belonging, but has no data to confirm this or identify specific issues.
Solution:
The HR team uses Noova's anonymous engagement surveys with targeted questions about psychological safety, fairness, and inclusion. They run quarterly pulse surveys to track sentiment across different departments.
Results:
- Identified specific teams where employees felt less included
- Gave HR concrete data to prioritize culture-building efforts
- Created a baseline for measuring improvement over time
- Employees appreciated having an anonymous channel for honest feedback
Bringing Structure to Recruitment Processes
Challenge:
Different departments follow different hiring practices - some rigorous, others informal - leading to concerns about consistency and fairness in how candidates are evaluated.
Solution:
The organization standardizes its hiring process using Noova's recruitment management tools: defined pipeline stages, candidate source tracking, and consistent evaluation workflows across all departments.
Results:
- All departments now follow the same structured hiring process
- Recruitment pipeline analytics provide visibility into each stage
- Candidate source tracking helps the team evaluate where they are attracting talent from
- Documented processes make it easier to review and improve fairness
Building Compensation Transparency
Challenge:
An enterprise with hundreds of employees has no centralized salary structure, making it difficult to ensure pay decisions are consistent and fair across roles and departments.
Solution:
The company uses Noova's compensation management to define salary bands by position and level, then conducts structured salary reviews with documented criteria and approval workflows.
Results:
- Clear salary structures provide a reference point for pay decisions
- Structured salary reviews reduce ad-hoc or inconsistent adjustments
- Employees gain visibility into how compensation decisions are made
- HR can generate salary cost reports to review compensation distribution
