The Florida Public Service Commission plays a bigger role in our lives than you might think.
From the cost of our electricity bills, to how prepared our grid is for the next hurricane, to resolving customer complaints, the commission is continually working to advance regulatory policies to improve daily life by holding companies within its jurisdiction accountable for essential services they provide.
It is these same utility companies we encourage to embrace equity, diversity and inclusion. Collectively, we know that all companies from their workforce to their board tables should reflect the constituencies they serve. Customers expect it, investors are demanding it, and frankly, it’s just the right thing to do.
