Current IssueIn Pursuit of Perfection: Defect Reduction
For bare PCB board fabrication, defect reduction is a critical aspect of a company's bottom line profitability. In this issue, we examine how imaging, etching, and plating processes can provide information and insight into reducing defects and increasing yields.
Voices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.

Thales in the UK Achieves Gender Pay Gap Milestone
January 23, 2025 | ThalesEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Thales in the UK has reached an important milestone in its journey towards workplace equity, reducing its mean and median gender pay gap to 9.1% - the first time this figure has fallen below 10%. This progress, outlined in the newly published 2024 Pay Gap Report, highlights the ongoing efforts to address gender disparities and foster a more inclusive workplace.
The report also features the third Ethnicity Pay Gap Report, which shows a mean ethnicity pay gap of 4.7% and a median gap of 2%. These figures represent positive progress; however, Thales acknowledges that we still have work to do to completely close these gaps. While the report reflects our ongoing commitments to equity, diversity, and inclusion, it also reminds us that both we and the broader industry must continue to make improvements in this area.
This year’s results align with Thales Group’s global adoption of the UN Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs), reinforcing the organisation’s shared commitment to gender equality and inclusivity.
