English term or phrase: Banding Analysis
To select layoff candidates, executives used a Banding Analysis process, which applied set criteria to score employees. Next, X conducted a statistical investigation to ensure the Banding Analysis would not disproportionately impact a protected class.

My guess is "analyse par tranches"

banding analysis
analyse en vue du regroupement en tranches


Explanation:
banding analysis = an analyse that will result in determining "bands/groups" of employee - those worth keeping and those not worth keeping, and possibly few gradations in between.

IOW this is not an analysis of some already existing "bands/strata/groups", it's an analysis that will define these "bands", categorise employees in bands.

disagree  GILOU: ça ne veut rien dire en français, en vue du regroupement alourdit la phrase

  -> when your outdated MT can't see the difference between "to analyse in order to define bands" and "to analyse by already defined bands", all that is left as [quasi-] "argument" is to bang on about supposed "niceties of style" ....

disagree  Daryo: you missed the key difference - these bands/groups do not exist at the beginning of this analysis, they get defined/established by this analysis.
