COLUMBUS, Ohio, April 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- American Electric Power (Nasdaq: AEP) was included in Forbes Best Employers for Diversity 2024 list.
The list was developed based on an independent survey from a sample of more than 170,000 U.S.-based employees. Participants were asked to anonymously rate their organizations on criteria such as age, gender, ethnicity, disability and sexual orientation equality. Respondents belonging to underrepresented groups also were asked to nominate organizations other than their own. Each company's diversity-related practices, such as employee resource groups and publication of diversity data, were also researched and assessed. The final list ranked the 500 employers that received the most recommendations and demonstrated diversity-related best-practices.
"AEP is proud to be recognized for our efforts to create a culture where our employees feel valued and respected," said Phil Ulrich, AEP's chief human resources officer. "We will continue to focus on developing a workforce that is reflective of the communities we serve."
AEP's nine employee resource groups empower employees to engage and lead in a diverse and inclusive work environment. Throughout 2023, the company's employee resource groups hosted several events across AEP locations and have actively participated in various community initiatives. Some of these included getting involved with the Special Olympics, organizing back-to-school drives across five of AEP's operating companies and educating employees on the history of Juneteenth and Black History Month.
"I look forward to another successful year as our employees expand their networks across the company, increase their cultural awareness, connect with one another and further develop a sense of community," said Janelle Coleman, vice president, community engagement and inclusion.
