Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
At Enel, we’re continuously working to create a more inclusive workplace that celebrates your authentic self. Advancing energy sector diversity, equity and inclusion through our company is key to building a just transition.
Why DE&I
Diversity makes us a stronger organization
Diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I) is not an accessory feature at Enel. It’s a top commitment embedded within our purpose. We firmly believe that by fostering a workplace culture that promotes and celebrates DE&I, we’re doing a greater good for our people, the business and the world:
Better for our team
By promoting DE&I at work, we’re fostering a more inclusive workplace culture where everyone feels safe and celebrated as their authentic self. When that happens, we increase both productivity and happiness at work, helping our team unlock their best selves and create a thriving community.
Better for the business
Diversity and inclusivity drive innovation. A more diverse team helps us meet the needs of our diverse communities, customers and other stakeholders. We understand that by advancing DE&I at Enel, we are setting our team up to succeed in reaching business goals.
Better for the world
Advancing DE&I is not just good for the business, it is the right thing to do. We aim to build a just, inclusive energy transition and that can only happen by fostering energy sector diversity through our culture. Enel is part of a greater community with a shared responsibility to make the world a better place.
Shared Identities
Our employee resource groups
Our Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) embody inclusivity at Enel. Connected by a shared background, experience or affinity, Enel employees formed these groups, which are open to everyone. Each group aligns with our broader DE&I initiatives and promotes professional growth and development, community outreach, recruitment and retention.

Women at Enel build the future
We’ve never been satisfied with the status quo, and that’s especially true when it comes to increasing female representation across the energy industry. As one of the leading companies in the Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index, we’re committed to promoting gender equality through our talent pipeline, ensuring equal pay and maintaining an inclusive culture.
