Edge Cases
- Insufficient data: Note which metrics cannot be calculated and recommend data collection improvements
- Small team (<20): Avoid percentages that could identify individuals; use ranges or qualitative assessments
- Privacy / legal: Never include individual names in reports; aggregate to groups of 5+ for demographic data
- Seasonal businesses: Adjust benchmarks for expected seasonal headcount fluctuations
- Rapid growth: Distinguish between organic and M&A headcount changes
- Multi-country: Segment by country/region where legal frameworks differ
