Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Policy

 

Phoenix Energy Technologies, Inc. is committed to fostering, cultivating and preserving a culture of diversity, equity and inclusion.

Our human capital is the most valuable asset we have. The collective sum of the individual differences, life experiences, knowledge, inventiveness, innovation, self-expression, unique capabilities and talent which our employees invest in their work represents a significant part of, not only our culture, but our reputation and company’s achievements as well.

We embrace and encourage our employees’ differences in age, color, disability, ethnicity, family or marital status, gender identity or expression, language, national origin, physical abilities, political affiliation, race, religion, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, veteran status, and other characteristics that make our employees unique.

Phoenix Energy Technologies, Inc.’s, diversity initiatives are applicable—but not limited—to our practices and policies on recruitment and selection; compensation and benefits; professional development and training; promotions; transfers; social and recreational programs; layoffs; terminations; and most importantly, the ongoing development of a work environment built on the premise of gender and diversity equity which
encourages and enforces:

• Respectful communication and cooperation between all employees

• Teamwork and employee participation, permitting the representation of all groups and employee perspectives

• Work/life balance

• Employer and employee contributions to the communities we serve to promote a greater understanding and respect for the diversity

All employees of Phoenix Energy Technologies, Inc. have a responsibility to treat others with dignity and respect at all times. All employees are expected to exhibit conduct which reflects inclusion during work, at work functions on or off the work site, and at all other company sponsored and participatory events, in person or virtual. All employees are also required to attend and complete any diversity awareness training to enhance their knowledge to fulfill this responsibility which the company may provide.

Any employee found to have exhibited any inappropriate conduct or behavior against others may be subject to disciplinary action.

Employees who believe they have been subjected to any kind of discrimination which conflicts with the company’s diversity policy and initiatives should seek assistance from a supervisor or the VP of Employee Operations and Risk Management.

Together, we are united as a team, acknowledging our unified goals, embracing our differences as individuals and endorsing a culture of teamwork to promote the success of our company, our customers and our personal interests.
