Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Great Lakes Energy is committed to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.

 

Great Lakes Energy values our differences as an organizational strength and source of creativity, providing a welcoming, inclusive, and respectful environment. This type of environment benefits not only individual employees, but our entire organization, GLE members and Truestream customers, board of directors, vendor/contract partners and the communities where we live and serve.

 

A diverse workforce is one where people from different groups and with different characteristics are represented. It includes characteristics protected by law, but it’s more than that. It can also include things like different personality types, skills and education levels, for example.

 

Our charge to employees:

The sum of our differences, life experiences, knowledge, inventiveness, innovation, self-expression, unique capabilities and talents that each of us invest in our work represents a significant part of not only our organizational culture, but our reputation and achievements as well. You, and all the unique things that you bring to the table, are the most valuable resource we have. We embrace and accept the things that make each of us unique.
