Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

Our DEI approach applies to all employees across the world, but we adapt it to local cultures and regulations. It’s a living policy, designed to evolve over time, and embedded into our performance goals. 

Be.U@ENGIE, the group global roadmap supported by a dedicated DEI committee, helps each region turn our ambition into action. From awareness campaigns to leadership programs and local initiatives, we empower every team to make a difference. 

Tractebel is committed to becoming a reference in gender equity. Our goals by 2030: 

• < 2% gender pay gap for equivalent roles 
• 40% women in management roles by 2030

Our program provides tools, training and support to create a fairer workplace, from hiring practices to leadership development. 

• Training: Inclusive leadership and unconscious bias training for all levels, including for the recruitment teams
• Leadership training: specific leadership training for women leaders, including coaching
• Mentoring: Programs tailored to young talents and managers
• Career paths: Clear development goals supported by our managers to grow in the company
• Awareness: International Women’s Day events, bias workshops, and sharing of best practices

We use tools like EQUIDIV, developed by our HR experts, to track pay equity and guide corrective actions. In 2022, the gender pay gap across the group stood below 2% – and we’re working to improve further. 

We have an HR Strategic Dashboard that allows us to monitor key indicators across the Group on a monthly basis, such as the percentage of female managers, the share of female manager hires, and the resignation rate among female managers.

Tractebel supports external initiatives to drive systemic change: 

• Partnerships with schools and foundations to inspire young women to become engineers 
• Mentoring programs of young students with diverse backgrounds to support underrepresented youth 
• Participation in industry events like Rise & Lead to share and learn 

We actively promote access to engineering careers for all – especially young people from underrepresented or disadvantaged backgrounds. Initiatives like “prépa apprentissage” and mentoring through industry networks help open doors. 

Tractebel supports employees with any type of disabilities through: 

• Dedicated advisors and local referents
• Awareness sessions for managers 
• Inclusion programs for interns and students 

The group ENGIE invest over €3 million annually in support initiatives and currently employ over 2,000 people with disabilities in France alone. 

We do not tolerate any form of harassment or discrimination. Practical guides, manager training, and clear reporting tools ensure a safe environment for all. Every country team develops its own action plan for Zero Tolerance.
