    8. Gender Balance Fast Facts In September 2003, UNDP committed to implementing a new Gender in Management Policy to reach 50/50 gender balance at the senior management levels by 2010. In August 2004, the web based Gender Scorecard was launched to support the implementation of the policy. As of May 2005, the gender balance at senior level (D1, D2, ASG) is 71% male and 29 % female. Gender balance for all professional staff (P1 to ASG) is 60% male and 40% female The gender balance for all UNDP is 50% male and 50% female

    9. New Opportunities to meet the 50/50 target How demography will help create more opportunities for qualified staff Retirement Fast Facts A total of 29% of UNDPs total workforce (all staff with 100, 200 and 300 series contracts = 1898 staff members) will retire in the next five years (2005 to 2010) 171 internationally recruited staff members, or 11% of the total international staff population will retire in the next five years. This includes: 41% of all D2 level staff and 28% of all D1 staff 33% or 41 RC/RRs (123 RC/RR in total excluding OICs) are 55 years or older and will retire in the next five years (29 men and 12 women).

    14. Other Initiatives QUARRY EXERCISE In March 2005 OHR introduced the Quarterly Reassignment Exercise (QUARRY), a more competitive and transparent corporate reassignment exercise to replace the Succession Management Exercise. The new exercise will be conducted quarterly. 17 posts were advertised in the first QUARRY. The outcome was 8 men and 7 women were selected for the positions (53% Male and 47% female) and a geographical distribution of 60% South and 40% North. LEADs The LEAD program was launched in 2000 and brought into 70 new staff members (54% female and 46% male) in the organization. The program was reviewed in May 2005 review exercise. 30 LEAD recruits graduated from the LEAD Programme (meaning they have been mainstreamed into middle management positions of UNDP). 4 LEAD recruits have left UNDP due to poor performance, and 36 LEAD recruits will continue in the programme until the next review period planned for April/May 2006. 17.1% of the LEAD recruits (12 staff members) are currently serving as Deputy Resident Representatives. Of these 5 are men and 7 are women.

    15. Corporate Gender Strategy Implementation Plan 2005 The UNDP gender balance in management policy is an integral part of the UNDP Corporate Gender Strategy. The Office of Human Resources is a key partner in the implementation of the strategy supporting the implementation of two Goals (1 and 5) Goal 1: Develop capacities through training, knowledge sharing and networking (learning) Goal 5: Human Resources policies and practices aligned with corporate commitment to gender equality and gender balance (policy review and implementation)
