In 2017, Marin Clean Energy (MCE) developed the Sustainable Workforce and Diversity Policy to ensure Diversity, Equity and Inclusion were embedded in everything they do. This policy requires local projects to include prevailing wages and hire 50% of employees from the local community. The policy further emphasizes supplier diversity efforts to support engagement with minority, women, disabled-veteran, and LGBTQ businesses. This policy also encourages purchasing and contracting with businesses located in MCE’s service area.
