No matter how big a nation is, it is no stronger than its weakest people, and as long as you keep a person down, some part of you has to be down there to hold him down, so it means you cannot soar as you might otherwise.
- Marian Anderson

OUR PLEDGE
We are deeply upset and outraged by the recent murders of Ahmaud Arbery, Elijah McClain, Breonna Taylor, and George Floyd. These murders are only the most recent examples of a deep-seated historical problem of systemic racism in the US and in many other parts of our world, including Canada.
At NPX, we believe it is our job to make the world a better place. This work goes far beyond clean nuclear power, innovation, and technology. It starts with a foundation of equity, inclusion, and playing an active role in the dismantling of systemic discrimination and injustice that exists in our community and the world. Our team has always had an unwavering commitment to diversity and inclusivity, but we also have come to understand that being 'not racist' is simply not enough. Racism is something that exists in our communities and something that we must confront and work to eradicate. We are committed to being an anti-racist company; not just in words but in action.
As members of the nuclear industry we must acknowledge that we have been too complacent, that our current diversity and inclusion initiatives don't go far enough to address the complex issues of systematic racism and injustice. The leadership of our industry does not represent the diversity of our communities. As an industry we can, and must, do more. At NPX, the process we are following is one of education, decision, and action. We have begun our journey by listening to the voices and experiences of BIPOC to educate and guide us. We are educating ourselves about the history and lasting impact of systemic racism. We are focused on proactive action on diversity, equity, and inclusion that delivers long term, sustainable, meaningful change. We are working on our plan and it will include a comprehensive review of our existing diversity, equity, and inclusion training programs, hiring processes, compensation practices, community support and political action.
We are committed to helping change the course of history and creating a company, a community, and a world that future generations can be proud of. We are committed to making it happen.
