A Message From Joe Nolan on DE&I
Welcome to Eversource’s 2023 Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Report. You will find that this report brings our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion to life and conveys both our pride in our achievements and our continual effort to improve.
Eversource’s mission is to provide safe and reliable electricity, natural gas, and water. We do this through top-class customer service, meeting the most basic and essential needs of more than 4.4 million customers in three states. The communities we serve are diverse, and we aim to build, maintain, and develop a workforce that mirrors that diversity. We know that DE&I is key to our ability to meet our customers’ needs, and we seek to create a workplace where employees of all backgrounds and perspectives are welcomed and can thrive. At Eversource, we work to incorporate equity and environmental justice into every decision we make and every action we take.
Our commitment to DE&I and social and environmental justice starts with our diverse Board of Trustees and continues through all levels of our organization, supported by our leaders, our DE&I Council, and our employee Business Resource Groups (BRGs). We hold ourselves accountable by closely tracking our performance through a variety of measurements, including the percentage of leadership-level positions filled by diverse candidates. I’m pleased to report that we met that goal last year, as well as other metrics detailed in this report.
We have achieved this performance primarily through the Eversource workforce’s tireless commitment, attention and effort. In the past year, we’ve relaunched our DE&I Council, bringing new energy and focus to these efforts. We’ve refreshed and rolled out Inclusive Leadership training and we’re providing companywide equity workshops. Also of note, we’ve increased our efforts and made progress in attracting and retaining female employees, which has become even more critical in today’s challenging talent landscape.
Our DE&I initiatives have earned honors from the Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index, As You Sow, Barron’s, Newsweek, and other prestigious national programs and organizations. We thank these organizations for recognizing our efforts, which reflect the hard work and commitment of our entire team.
Thank you for your interest in Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at Eversource.
President and Chief Executive Officer
