1. Gender and Other Statistics, CB Initiatives CMS Women’s Forum, CERN, 1 Oct. 2009 C.-E. Wulz

2. CMS Women’s Forum, 1 Oct. 2009 Start of Equal Opportunities Initiatives 1 In one of the recent CB Advisory Group meetings it was proposed to look at women’s issues, and overall gender statistics for CMS was shown. Some CMS women have also been active in thinking about Equal Opportunities issues (T. Rodrido, M. Felcini, G. Hanson, S. Beauceron, F. Blekman et al.). At the Bologna CB Meeting it was agreed to look at Equal Opportunities issues in general. It was decided that C.-E Wulz should make a report at the December CB meeting. I would also propose that such a report is given regularly at the CB, for example once a year. A first step is to make available relevant statistics. By publishing these attention would already be drawn to any inequalities. The statistics should be published on the iCMS web pages. For this, the CMS people database must be expanded.

3. C.-E. WulzCMS Women’s Forum, 1 Oct. 2009 CMS People Database 2 For each person, there is already a number of entries, and the gender is one of them. Not all entries can be public for everybody. At least the following entries should be added: PeopleJobFlgId job name PeopleJobProject cms project PeopleJobType job/nomination JobDateStart date start (yyyy-mm-dd) JobDateEnd date end (yyyy-mm-dd) PhD year I am in contact with some members of the new CMS Communication Group and a few other relevant people to iron out the technical details (D. Samyn, L. Taylor, A. Pfeiffer, B. Wyslouch, G. Rolandi). The new central CMS people database will be in ORACLE. The CINCO conference database should also be merged with the central database.
