10/29/20

The UK Music Diversity Taskforce based their findings on reports from a record 3,670 people working in the music industry.

The latest survey on diversity in the U.K. music industry has revealed progress across the wider workforce but a lack of equal gender and ethnic representation at senior executive levels. Findings come from trade body UK Music.

Headline stats from the 2020 Music Industry Workforce Diversity Survey include:

Representation of black, Asian and other ethnic minorities among those aged 16-24 in the music industry stands at record 30.6%—up from 25.9% in 2018.

Proportion of women increases to new high of 49.6% in 2020 from 45.3% in 2016.

The number of women in the 45-64 age group drops to 35% in 2020 from 38.7% in 2018.
