How does the organization define and measure the success of its DE&I objectives? Please include metrics/goals if applicable.

Among the metrics we track in measurement of our industry progress are:

• Creation of a volunteer DEI Committee comprised of a diverse group of member company employees that meets monthly to provide strategic and tactical input into MSCI’s industry journey.
• Formal adoption of a DEI mission statement.
• Successful completion of first-ever industry-wide (producing mills & service centers) demographic survey in 2020; thereby creating a baseline from which member companies can measure their respective progress vis a vie the industry. Data will be updated on a bi-annual basis.
• Monthly series of free webinars on DEI thought leadership provided to men and women at member companies both live as well as “on-demand.” Since inception, MSCI has hosted (16) webinars/firesides, totaling 3,075 registrations (avg. registrations = 192). Actual reach of individuals is greater as we know several viewings occurred in conference rooms with multiple attendees per single registration as well as numerous “on-demand.”
• Hosted a first-ever, industry-wide event in Chicago for Gen Z & Millennial men and women of member companies (186 attendees). In addition to networking, structured program offered thought-provoking and strategic content on the industry. Purpose was to demonstrate that the industrial metals sector of the economy is a diverse and inclusive community as well as meaningful place for employment
