Lindsay Burke Assists with Creation of Solar Industry Diversity Guide

Covington’s Lindsay Burke, vice chair of the Employment Practice Group, assisted the Solar Energy Industry Association (SEIA) in developing a Diversity Best Practices Guide for the Solar Industry.

The guide, released earlier this month, notes that diversity is not a discrete issue area to be handled by human resources departments, but instead should be an active initiative that should permeate all major aspects of an organization. The guide also provides advice and support for diversity initiatives within member companies. The SEIA is the national trade association of the U.S. solar energy industry, and includes approximately 1,000 member companies.
