nonprofit reproductive and sexual healthcare federation
Planned Parenthood
Industry Health
A nonprofit federation providing reproductive healthcare, sexual health services, education, and advocacy through affiliates. Planned Parenthood scores well for access to stigmatized and politically targeted care, while ideological conflict, affiliate variation, and healthcare bureaucracy keep it from an unqualified top score.
Why this matters: Planned Parenthood belongs in the directory because many Americans interact with it as a healthcare provider, not just a political symbol.

Scoring Axes
| Axis | Score | Why this score |
|---|---|---|
Ownership
?
Control rights: shareholder-dominated at 0, worker cooperative control
at 10.
|
5 / 10 |
Planned Parenthood's public record identifies its ownership form, institutional type, or public/private/nonprofit/cooperative structure in the health category. Linked evidence
|
Governance
?
Binding decision authority: centralized control at 0, democratic
stakeholder control at 10.
|
5 / 10 |
Planned Parenthood's public record indicates whether binding control sits with shareholders, executives, members, public officials, nonprofit boards, residents, patients, or customers. Linked evidence
|
Extraction
?
Surplus allocation, wage share, CEO pay ratio, margins, and structured
extraction judgment.
|
6 / 10 |
Planned Parenthood's model determines whether money flows primarily to investors and owners or back toward users, members, public value, community services, affordability, or mission delivery. Linked evidence
|
Labor Sovereignty
?
Worker power: coercive conditions at 0, co-determination or ownership at
7. Employee dissatisfaction matters only when source-backed evidence
shows concrete limits on worker agency, such as coercive scheduling,
retaliation, wage theft, harassment, unsafe conditions, suppression of
worker voice, or extreme turnover.
|
4 / 7 |
Planned Parenthood's linked public materials do not show ordinary workers holding full binding democratic control over the institution. Linked evidence
|
Solidarity with the
Unemployed
?
Treatment of exits and nonworkers, including severance, redeployment,
and non-competes.
|
7 / 7 |
Planned Parenthood operates in an everyday-need category where job loss, illness, rent pressure, family-care obligations, tax compliance, utility dependence, or household instability affects bargaining power. Linked evidence
|
Loss-Bearing Fidelity
?
Willingness to absorb costs to preserve values, workers, users, and
public obligations.
|
5 / 7 |
Planned Parenthood's product or service can absorb real household, civic, care, housing, energy, or tax-compliance risk, but the record also shows who bears costs when the institution fails or prices rise. Linked evidence
|
Market Conduct
?
Pricing fairness, switching costs, lock-in, and rent extraction.
|
5 / 5 |
Planned Parenthood operates in a market where customers, tenants, patients, taxpayers, utility users, parents, or community members often face switching costs, asymmetric information, or limited choice. Linked evidence
|
Product Integrity
?
Preservation of quality rather than degradation for monetization.
|
5 / 5 |
Planned Parenthood's core service has practical everyday utility, but its integrity depends on pricing, safety, transparency, access, quality, data handling, and accountability. Linked evidence
|
Scale Integrity
?
Whether growth improves or degrades fairness and accountability.
|
5 / 5 |
Planned Parenthood's scale or category makes its decisions consequential for ordinary U.S. households, patients, tenants, parents, taxpayers, utility customers, or communities. Linked evidence
|
