    123abc provided a solution by creating a calculated column. You can make a little adjustment on the formula of your measure as below to get the expected result.

    Headcount =
VAR MaxReportDate =
    CALCULATE (
        MAX ( 'FACT Workforce Data'[Report Date] ),
        ALLSELECTED ( 'FACT Workforce Data' )
    )
RETURN
    CALCULATE (
        DISTINCTCOUNT ( 'FACT Workforce Data'[Employee ID] ),
        FILTER (
            'FACT Workforce Data',
            'FACT Workforce Data'[Report Date] = MaxReportDate
                && 'FACT Workforce Data'[Active Status] = "Active"
        )
    )

    Best Regards
