SEE our focus on diversity and inclusion

Ameren has built a nationally recognized diversity and inclusion initiative by fostering an environment in which individual perspectives are not just recognized, but valued. Our customers and communities are highly diverse, and our workforce commitment reflects that. Ameren provides free community resources to promote discussions about diversity and inclusion. DiversityInc CEO Luke Visconti has called ours “a model of an inclusive workplace.”

About 8% of employees, including senior executives, belong to resource groups. These are:

  • Ameren Military-Veteran Employees
  • Powering Connections for All Abilities
  • Ameren Network of Minority Employees
  • Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender Employees & Allies Network
  • Multi-Generational Employee Resource Group
  • Women Influencing Success in Energy

Each group gives co-workers an opportunity to connect with people who have common interests and backgrounds and enjoy a forum for open discussion of commonalities and differences. Employee resource groups are required to support Ameren’s business goals and objectives, provide community outreach and educate and engage employees as a part of their mission and annual strategic business plan.

Our Women Influencing Success in Energy (WISE) employee resource group is focused on preparing more young women for careers in energy. The group hosts an annual Get Into Energy Career Day for females between 13-19 years old who are interested in STEM opportunities. Get Into Energy is a partnership between Ameren and the Center for Energy Workforce Development, which builds awareness about career opportunities in the energy industry.
