About This Report

This report represents Dominion Energy’s effort to share our performance on diversity, equity, and inclusion.

The report focuses on the activities of Dominion Energy and the Dominion Energy Charitable Foundation in 2022. Where relevant or helpful for context, it includes historical or forward-looking information.

The report highlights workforce representation broken down by race/ethnicity and gender. The company also discloses our EEO  –1 Component 1 Form data in the report.

Changes in workforce representation data related to demographics, hiring, and departures reflect both strategic workforce policies and practices and the results of mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures unconnected to DE&I efforts.
