Clear vision, clear progress.
2015 Integrated Report
fatalities. We held the 2015 contractor safety summit in June, bringing together more than 70 contract
partners in Houston, Texas, to share best practices.
Improving workforce wellness benefits our employees and helps Entergy better control health care
costs. Our HealthStrides long-term health care strategy has yielded savings for both employees and
the company by holding medical plan cost increases to less than the national average. Factors that have
helped slow the increase in costs include intentional consumerism by employees in making health care
choices, greater participation in Entergy’s ENSHAPE wellness program and preventive health care and
vendor improvements. Participating employees use the ENSHAPE program to monitor health through
health screenings, health risk assessments and participation in walking, health maintenance, nutritional
and other informational, educational and peer support programs. In 2015, our goal was for 18 percent of
employees to complete the Triathlon of Wellness. The triathlon is led by our executive leadership team
and encourages employees to engage in health screenings, health risk assessments and health action
programs. We achieved 18.2 percent participation. Positive results of wellness are far-reaching and
include stronger teamwork and engagement from participating in group wellness events as well as
improved fitness, which facilitates working safely and productively.
ENVIRONMENTAL/SOCIAL
Cycling to work can play a significant role in reducing employee
vehicle trips to the office, helping lower air emissions and
reducing roadway congestion. Entergy continually encourages
our employees to adopt lifestyles such as cycling for fitness
as a foundation to working more safely. The inaugural Entergy
Bike the Big Easy event attracted nearly 1,400 cycling
enthusiasts, promoting a healthier, eco-friendly lifestyle and
helping to boost local tourism. Riders, including more than
100 Entergy employees, cycled 20-mile and 40-mile courses
along some of the more than 100 miles of urban bike paths built
through Entergy’s partnership with the city of New Orleans
and the Louisiana Public Health Institute.
ECONOMIC/SOCIAL
Entergy’s Navasota network in Texas last experienced a lost-time accident in October 1972. The
linemen and servicemen who maintain this remarkable record attribute it to working side by side,
questioning anything that doesn’t look right and providing hands-on training to new employees.
