At CenterPoint Energy, every employee counts. Our company is committed to creating an inclusive work environment where business results are achieved through the skills, abilities and talents of our diverse workforce.
We embrace the power of diversity because it enriches our work environment and provides social and economic benefits to the communities we serve. It is not only a focus that our employees, customers, communities and shareholders expect from us, but it is also the right approach from a business standpoint as well.
We foster:
- A culture in which mutual respect is the standard and different backgrounds and viewpoints are considered competitive advantages
- An environment in which all employees have opportunities for personal and professional development, and
- Recognition that diversity and inclusion are key components of our business competencies
Every employee at CenterPoint Energy is encouraged to promote diversity and inclusion. In fact, all employees actively participate in diversity awareness training. We feel that it gives our company a true competitive advantage to have people from different backgrounds and viewpoints united in purpose. That's why we continue to work and volunteer together in a corporate-wide commitment to diversity in which everyone at the company has a role.
Diversity at CenterPoint Energy has three elements: workplace diversity and inclusion, supplier diversity and community relations. All three are an important part of our vision to be America's leading energy delivery company...and more.
