At Octopus Energy, we respect everyone's identity and how they want to be recognised at work.
Using someone's correct name and pronouns is a mark of respect. It also matters for legal protections and workplace inclusion.
Our principles
Respect. Everyone deserves to be called by the correct name and pronouns.
Privacy. Your gender identity, previous name or transgender identity is confidential unless you choose to share it.
No assumptions. Don't assume someone's pronouns based on appearance.
Support. We have processes and people to help you through name changes and updates.
Legal protection. Under the Gender Recognition Act 2004, sharing someone's previous name or trans status without consent is unlawful.
