Diversity

Inclusion makes us stronger. 


Strengthening a culture of inclusion

Building a workforce with diverse perspectives and experiences, as well as an inclusive workplace helps us create a culture where everyone feels valued and respected, which in turn helps us recruit and retain great talent. The principles of this work are woven into the fabric of our company going back to one of our founders, James B. Duke.

Duke Energy's D&I foundation is built on these principles:
  • Reflecting the communities we serve
  • Strengthening our culture of inclusion and belonging
We believe an empowered workplace makes us a stronger company and provides a competitive advantage for connecting with the ever-changing needs of our customers and communities. We work hard to provide a culture that ensures employees feel welcomed, respected, heard and valued – and able to bring their best version of themselves to work every day. Our workforce, workplace and community initiatives are designed to create a supportive and inclusive environment that reflects our commitment to respecting all employees and the communities we serve.

We’re proud of our efforts to sustain an inclusive workplace where all team members are encouraged to contribute to the success of our company, and we are committed to this journey.
