Pakka has been recognized as a “Most Preferred Workplace for Women 2024-2025,” a certification earned through a research-driven approach led by Lead Cap Ventures in partnership with Team Marksmen. The process involved gathering information from a variety of sources, including:
Team Member Surveys: Input was collected directly from team members within organizations, focusing on their experiences with workplace policies, safety, work-life balance, pay equity, and career advancement opportunities. These surveys likely included questions about company culture, inclusion efforts, and leadership representation for women.
HR and Organizational Data: Information about HR policies, diversity initiatives, and inclusion programs was also gathered from company representatives. This included data on leadership roles held by women, compensation packages, and initiatives designed to support women’s professional growth.
External Industry Research: Additional data was likely supplemented through broader industry research and reports, which helped benchmark companies against industry standards. This could include factors such as average gender diversity ratios, leadership gender splits, and retention rates for women in the workforce.
Independent Audits and Reviews: The data collection process may have included third-party audits or reviews to ensure accuracy and fairness in assessing how well companies perform against the certification’s criteria. It also incorporated feedback from platforms like LinkedIn and Glassdoor.
All this data was compiled and analyzed to evaluate how well Pakka met the standards of an inclusive, safe, and supportive workplace for women.
