HR Analytics Dashboard – Power BI Project
This interactive HR dashboard was developed in Power BI to provide a unified, data-driven view of human resources performance across key areas: demographics, employee attrition, and individual satisfaction. It enables HR teams to move from reactive reporting to proactive workforce planning.
📍 The Problem
In many organizations, HR data is siloed and managed manually across tools like Excel or legacy systems. This creates several challenges:
- ❌ No centralized view of workforce structure and dynamics
- ❌ Slow, manual demographic and attrition analysis
- ❌ Lack of visibility into employee satisfaction over time
- ❌ Difficult to detect early attrition risks or diversity imbalances
✅ What This Dashboard Solves

No real-time attrition insights | Dynamic visualizations by role, travel, tenure |
Hidden DEI issues | Ethnicity breakdowns paired with average salary |
