Oliveris Tech Incubator Ltd adopts this Gender Equality Plan as a formal company commitment to equality, inclusion and responsible research and innovation. The plan is voluntarily aligned with the European Commission's Horizon Europe Gender Equality Plan framework and applies across Oliveris' research, innovation and employment activities.
Scope and governance
The plan covers recruitment, employment, pay practices, career development, leadership, training, governance, work-life balance, organisational culture, research and innovation activity, and the prevention of harassment and discrimination.
The Chief Executive Officer has overall accountability. The Senior Management Team coordinates implementation, monitoring and annual review, with managers and employees responsible for applying the plan in day-to-day practice.
Horizon Europe alignment
The plan addresses the four process requirements used in the Horizon Europe Gender Equality Plan framework: public availability and senior-management endorsement; dedicated resources and expertise; data collection, monitoring and annual reporting; and awareness raising and training.
Oliveris is a private for-profit company and adopts the plan voluntarily as a clear and auditable basis for gender-equality actions across Horizon Europe and other research and innovation activities.
