NextEnergy Group is committed to providing an environment in which all genders can thrive and feel supported to reach their potential.
We are working to create an even more gender inclusive workplace to ensure that everyone feels fully included in their day-to-day work experiences at the Group.
Externally, ensuring a diverse workforce as the solar industry expands is a key driver of success; we see it as fundamental to the pursuit of our mission. We ask our Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) and Operations and Maintenance (O&M) contractors to monitor and disclose social KPIs. We believe that engaging with our contractors to disclose these metrics will help them to carefully consider their work-related practices and improve their approaches, where possible.
Our Talent Acquisition team looks for individuals who reflect our Values; we believe that this is the reason for our high retention rate.
We do not pursue diversity for its own sake, but instead strive for inclusiveness through our mindset, policies and practices in order to create an environment where everyone can thrive.
Our Annual Employee Engagement Survey, carried out in September 2023, indicated that 87% of employees ‘felt genuinely supported to take advantage of flexible working policies’.
