Diversity at TVA
One key to TVA’s success is the extraordinary diversity of its culture — not just in race or gender but also in background, experience, and ideas.
TVA is committed to diversity not just because it’s the right thing to do but also because it supports our efforts to attract the best employees and contributes to high performance and employee engagement. This commitment to inclusion is based on a core value of respect for each individual and the unique talents he or she brings to the workplace.
TVA works to ensure inclusive staffing through its normal recruiting processes but also by attending focus groups, career fairs, conferences, and other networking events that promote diversity hiring. If you would like to contact us to offer other ideas or if you are part of a diversity organization that can help us bring in top candidates, please e-mail us at Careers@tva.gov or call us at 866-620-8010.
