We celebrate diversity and embrace an inclusive culture.

At ENGIE North America, we celebrate diversity. Together, we strive to build an inclusive culture to better ourselves, our company, our communities, and our world. Embracing the presence of different and unique identities is not only the right thing to do, but also a powerful benefit and differentiator for our business. 

We pledge our unwavering commitment to the achievement of diversity, equity, and inclusion.  

  • Diversity refers to the range of human and/or organizational differences and similarities. This range includes personal dimensions of diversity related to ethnicity, race, gender, sexual orientation, age, and physical ability, as well as factors including (but not limited to) parental/family status, work experience, educational background, geographic location, organizational affiliation, and management status.
  • Equity refers to fairness regarding the utilization of practices, policies, and systems maintained by the organization. At ENGIE, we seek to remedy inequities that can result from individual differences. Employees can succeed at ENGIE regardless of their race, gender, ethnicity, age, religion, sexual orientation, physical ability, or socioeconomic status. Employees are evaluated based only on performance results, leadership, potential, behaviors, and competencies.
  • Inclusion refers to creating a work environment and culture where differences are valued, respected, and leveraged as a business enabler without bias. In an inclusive organization, all employees feel a sense of belonging. Everyone has an opportunity to contribute and achieve success at ENGIE.

ENGIE “walks the talk” with specific goals and actions.

We are proud of the ways in which our employees embody our values and offer solutions to take our organization to the next level. We all have important roles to play to effect positive change. Only by reflecting the communities we serve and embracing each individual’s unique contributions will we advance our purpose to shape a sustainable future.

ENGIE has committed to having women fill 50% of management roles across the global group by 2050.

In addition, numerous internal initiatives have resulted in immediate, measurable progress on our diversity and inclusion (D&I) journey:

  • Building upon strong commitment from our executive committee, we launched a D&I learning path focused on unconscious bias and inclusion.
  • We created a D&I committee with cross-functional subcommittees that drafted a charter to guide our actions going forward.
  • We advanced diversity in our hiring practices.
  • Through the diversity, equity & inclusion (DE&I) committee for American Clean Power (ACP), we are helping establish a coordinated, industry-wide effort to attract and retain diverse talent within the renewables market sector.
  • We added inclusion to the ENGIE performance review for all employees and managers.
  • We implemented charitable-giving opportunities to support organizations dedicated to diversity, inclusion, and equality.
  • We leveraged external expertise to provide an objective perspective on the specific challenges we face as a company, help shape our decisions, and assist us in our 18-month plan of action.
  • We held multiple all-hands, expert-led training events with external speakers on D&I topics.
  • We led an industry effort that included dozens of renewable energy companies making commitments to advance racial justice.
  • Our procurement team started tracking spend with suppliers that meet certain diversity criteria.
  • We changed our holiday schedule to include Martin Luther King Day, Veterans Day, and Juneteenth.
  • We initiated backup childcare and elder care to support families in the workplace.
  • We launched and expanded seven employee resource groups.

 

Employee resource groups empower employees to drive change from the grassroots level.

ENGIE’s employee resource groups (ERGs) are inspired by participating employees. Each group has an executive sponsor, a budget, and a platform for creating educational programming for both employees and our communities.
