The Houston Business Journal named Energy Workforce and Technology Council as an Outstanding Diversity Helping Hand.
“I am proud the Houston Business Journal is recognizing the Council as a leader in our community. Our organization is dedicated to our workforce internally and across our sector. Through our workforce development programs, we are providing the tools, training and best practices necessary for our sector to succeed.”
Molly Determan, COO, Energy Workforce & Technology Council
The Council contributes thought leadership and op-eds on specific issues such as flexibility, parental leave, pay equity, and upskilling.
The Council also provides training and workforce development programs at an organizational level and for individual contributors, advocates for workplace policies that will foster inclusive cultures and provides networking opportunities to discuss workforce initiatives.
In 2021, the Council renewed its workforce study in the OFS sector to determine progress and develop recommendations for the sector. The Council is currently updating its workforce toolkit based on the updated information from the 2021 survey and will release it later this year.
The Council has advocated that in order to attract and retain the talent needed to deliver those technologies and innovations, companies must have a more inclusive workplace.
