Gender Equality Plan

  At Planck Technologies, we believe that diversity drives innovation. As a deep-tech startup at the forefront of technological advancement, we are committed to building an inclusive and equitable workplace from the ground up.
 

We are a small but growing team, currently composed of:

• 1 Female CEO (Founder)
• 3 Male team members, including our CTO
• 4 advisors (1 female)

While our current gender ratio reflects the early-stage nature of our company, we are committed to fostering a balanced and inclusive environment as we scale. 

We aim to:

• Promote gender balance in all roles, especially in technical and leadership positions.
• Ensure equal opportunities in recruitment, development, and compensation.
• Foster an inclusive culture that values diverse perspectives and combats unconscious bias.

As we grow, we will work toward the following targets:

• Short-term (1–2 years):
  • Reach at least 30% female representation across the team.
  • Ensure inclusive hiring practices and unbiased evaluation criteria.
• Mid-term (3–5 years):
  • Achieve a minimum 40/60 gender balance.
  • Ensure equal access to leadership and technical roles.
• Long-term (5–10 years):
  • Maintain a sustainable gender balance (ideally 50–50% across all levels).
  • Eliminate any gender-based disparities in pay, promotion, or recognition.

  
  

• Inclusive Hiring: We will actively seek diverse candidates and ensure our job descriptions and outreach are inclusive.
• Bias Awareness: All team members will undergo training on unconscious bias and inclusive collaboration.
• Transparent Growth Paths: We will define clear, equitable criteria for promotions and leadership opportunities.
• Annual Review: We will assess our progress annually and adjust our goals and actions accordingly.

Our CEO will lead the implementation of this plan, supported by all team members. As we grow, we will designate a Diversity & Inclusion Lead to oversee progress and ensure accountability.
