Employee Engagement

We recognise that employee engagement is critical to our success as a business. In 2021 and 2022, we measured employee engagement with the Net Promoter Score,* with 45% employee participation and a score of +4 in 2021 and then increased participation to 51% with a score of 14 in 2022. In 2023, EnerSys implemented a new survey platform using the Great Place to Work® Trust Index Model to survey our entire employee population. Employees were given a platform to voice their opinions, concerns, and suggestions, empowering them to actively participate in shaping the company's culture and practices.

Our first-year survey results showed a 65% participation rate and 66% positive feedback, with high scores in Justice and Personal Job satisfaction, but noted opportunities for improvement in Collaboration and Impartiality. These insights have allowed EnerSys leaders to pinpoint improvement areas and strategise for better employee satisfaction and engagement. Consequently, EnerSys is reinforcing its status as an employer of choice, dedicated to fostering a supportive and inclusive workplace where employees feel valued and inspired to excel. As we continue to emphasise the importance of our employee experience, we anticipate an increase in survey participation rates over time.

EnerSys DEI Business Resource Groups

Our Business Resource Groups (BRGs) are voluntary and employee-led. They aim to unite our teams and give employees a voice and a sense of belonging. Each BRG has an executive sponsor that provides guidance, advice and support to group members. We are very proud of our BRGs' success in shaping the culture at EnerSys. These networks all share a similar mission: alignment to our DEI initiatives and fostering a sense of community and belonging.

In 2023, we expanded our commitment to diversity and inclusion by launching three new BRGs — joining our existing Women in Leadership, Hispanic/Latinx Organization for Leadership in Action, and Asian Heritage Associate groups. These BRGs foster crosscollaboration, allowing members to utilise their diverse perspectives to address challenges, exchange best practices, and enact significant change. This initiative enhances our culture, ensuring a workplace where everyone's voice is valued and employees are empowered to excel both professionally.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion continued Black Unity in Leadership Development (BUiLD): Introduced in early 2023, BUiLD aims to cultivate a community of Black leadership at EnerSys through coaching, development, empowerment, and advocacy. It is vital in promoting inclusivity and equity, supporting our diverse workforce, and organising cultural awareness events, professional development opportunities, and community engagement.

Green Leadership Opportunities Working Group (GLOW Group): Focused on advancing the sustainability efforts of EnerSys, the GLOW Group was established to promote environmental awareness, education, and action. This group encourages sustainable practices across the company, spearheading green initiatives and contributing to a culture of environmental responsibility and innovation for a sustainable future.

PRIDE: Launched in late 2023, the PRIDE BRG emphasises respect, inclusivity, and equity for all, specifically advocating for the LGBTQ+ community and its allies. This group is dedicated to creating a welcoming environment that fosters acceptance and understanding, ensuring every individual is heard and contributing to a more inclusive workforce.

Military Veterans Program

EnerSys proudly honors veterans and service members by creating a path to leverage their valuable skills. We participate in the U.S. Department of Defense Skillbridge Program, connecting transitioning service members with civilian work experience through internships, apprenticeships, and industry training. Our commitment to this community extends beyond recruitment. We actively support them through affirmative action efforts and our multinational Military Veteran Ambassador Network, which engages new veteran hires during their first 90 days.

EnerSys is also a proud recipient of the Military Friendly Employer Award 2024, which is the standard that measures an organization’s commitment, effort and success in creating sustainable and meaningful benefit for the military community.

EnerSys has recently signed the Armed Forces Covenant, a pledge ensuring those who serve or have served in the British Armed Forces, and their families, are treated fairly and with respect throughout society.

To further express our gratitude for our service members, we developed our own token of recognition called the Veterans Salute Coin. The Veterans Salute Coin recognizes employees currently serving in the military or veterans of military service in any of the global markets we serve.
