Diversity and inclusion guidance · Edition 1 · May 2021
Inclusion governance for every organization.
InclusionScore / WSMI certification framework DISM
01 / About the standard
ISO 30415 provides guidance for building diversity and inclusion into organizational governance, leadership, workforce practice, and stakeholder relationships. It asks organizations to consider responsibilities, actions, measures, and outcomes in their own context.
The guidance can be applied by organizations of different sizes and sectors. WSMI uses DISM to turn relevant inclusion commitments into owned services, documented controls, evidence, measures, and improvement decisions.
DISM names the InclusionScore / WSMI certification framework; ISO 30415:2021 names the ISO publication.
ISO 30415 is guidance, not a requirements-based management-system certification standard. DISM is a separate proprietary certification framework, and DIP is its professional designation; neither is an ISO-issued certificate.
02 / Life cycle
This records how ISO develops and maintains a publication. It is not an organizational maturity scale.
Official stage: Published; systematic review closed in September 2026. Check ISO for updates ↗
These are the practical stages an organization may follow. Readiness and a completed certification decision are separate.
03 / Sustainable Development Goals
ISO identifies these UN Sustainable Development Goals in the official record for this standard. The numbered labels below are a text presentation, not official UN marks.
For professionals / DIP
Study the standard's purpose and its WSMI certification framework. Review the syllabus, practical exercises, assessment requirements, and current designation policy before enrollment.
Explore training ↗Why InclusionScore? ↗For organizations
Define scope, gather evidence, examine maturity or system conformance, prioritize implementation, and prepare for appropriate independent review.
Explore diagnostics ↗Certification authority
ISO develops and publishes international standards. ISO does not certify individuals or organizations. InclusionScore provides professional certification, organizational assessment, and certification services based on international HR and DEI standards.
Learn how certification works ↗Why apply guidance?
Organizations apply guidance such as ISO 30415 to strengthen governance, invite meaningful workforce participation, and make inclusion practices measurable. A defined approach helps teams identify and manage people-related risks, review outcomes, and improve organizational performance over time.
DISM translates that guidance into an assessment and improvement pathway. It does not turn ISO 30415 into a requirements-based ISO certification standard.
Explore the organizational diagnostic ↗The WSMI architecture
ISO 30415 provides inclusion governance that can guide the application of ISO 30201 to human work. InclusionScore operationalizes these disciplines by treating consequential organizational interactions as measurable services.
This integration is WSMI service-management methodology. Neither ISO standard formally requires the other.
Professional pathways remain distinct: DISM leads toward the DIP designation; HRSM leads toward the HR-MSP designation. Each designation remains subject to its own approved certification requirements.
