Dominion Energy focuses on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

"At Dominion Energy, we consider diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I) profoundly important ― both because DE&I makes us a stronger, more successful company, and because we believe treating people right is a moral imperative."

The DE&I Advantage

We include a focus on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in all aspects of our corporate strategy. DE&I deepens our understanding of our customers’ perspectives, making us more responsive and innovative, and, as a result, more competitive also. We build this culture of DE&I for both our employees and the communities we serve, in partnership with them.

Our Commitment to DE&I

Our People

We seek out top performers through diversity-focused outreach, military channels, our internship program and other means. We want our workforce to reflect the communities we serve, so we actively recruit within diverse populations. Once new hires join our team, we want them to stay. Our extensive internal talent development programs support employees in reaching their full potential.
