On October 14, over 150 Entergy employees participated in the third annual Entergy Bike the Big Easy. Beginning in the shadows of the Superdome and trekking through the French Quarter before heading into the Garden District and across City Park, cyclists enjoyed some iconic New Orleans sites on the 20-mile and 32-mile courses that stretched along the closed streets of the Crescent City.
Entergy’s 2017 Disability Equality Index® score of 90 has classified the company as one of the best places to work for people with disabilities.
The CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion™ is the largest CEO-driven business commitment to advance diversity and inclusion within the workplace. At Entergy, we have been living this is a commitment for a very long time. And that is why our Chairman and CEO, Leo Denault, is joining over 150 CEOs from across the U.S. to participate in this initiative.
A large portion of Entergy’s customer base and the majority of its utility infrastructure are in the Gulf Coast region. Recognizing that sea level rise and coastal erosion are risks to our assets and the customers we serve, Entergy has worked to support programs that help restore and rebuild the wetlands that serve as natural protection in severe weather situations.
As hurricane season begins, residents across the Entergy service territory are preparing their homes and businesses prior to the potential of a storm hitting. At Entergy, preparations are an ongoing, year-round process.
