“Successfully serving our customers begins and ends with our people. That’s why we’re dedicated to creating a safe workplace where all employees are supported and challenged in their work and their future development.”
— Arleen Barnett, vice president, Human Resources, Diversity & Inclusion and Administration
Taking care of employees Our benefits package reflects what’s important to our employees. For instance, our retirement savings programs are very competitive and have wide participation. In 2013, approximately 90 percent of employees participated in our 401(k) plan, saving an average of 10 percent of their pay.
Embracing diversity 100 PERCENT
PGE’s score on the Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s annual Corporate Equality Index.
By embedding a philosophy of inclusivity and employing a diverse workforce, we’re able to maintain a reputation as an employer of choice and ensure a talented pool of candidates.
To deliver on this vision, we: • Partner with community-based organizations such as the Urban League of Portland, Partners in Diversity and Oregon Tradeswomen, Inc.
• Fund scholarships through the PGE Foundation • Engage employees through our Advisory Committee on Diversity & Inclusion and affiliated resource groups
• Oversee all our diversity efforts with an executive-level steering committee
In 2014, PGE was one of just five energy companies to earn a top rating on the Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s Corporate Equality Index — a national benchmark of corporate policies and practices inclusive of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender employees and their families.
Engaging our workforce
PGE employees find their work meaningful, care about our customers and appreciate their co-workers. We survey our employees about employee engagement and satisfaction annually. Our 2013 employee survey showed we fell just short of meeting our engagement goals. We’ll continue our efforts to help employees maintain a strong sense of engagement in their work and connection with our company’s mission.
