At Milne Electric, Inc., we acknowledge and honor the fundamental value and dignity of all individuals.
Everyone has a right to work, to learn, to be respected, and to be included.
We will create and maintain a workplace and community that includes and strives to advance people from
diverse backgrounds and ethnicities.
We are building our policies and procedures to track and continue to improve our outreach and hiring practices.
MWBE Outreach – We will work hard to maximize opportunities for Minority and Women-owned Business Enterprises and the trades. Milne Electric will continue this work by finding ways to bring MWBE firms and workers onto larger projects to work with us and learn about the industry so they can grow their firms.
Worker Outreach – Milne is reaching out to communities, schools, and training facilities to educate and encourage disadvantaged minorities and women to join the electrical trades. The electrical trades need good people and are lucrative careers.
Is our DEI partner and guide. JTS is a highly respected firm led by CEO, Tanya Jimale. Tanya is a degreed Civil Engineer with extensive experience in the construction industry.
We are partnering with JTS on document control, project engineering, and building diversity. We are proud to associate with a variety of MWBE associations and will grow these partnerships to continually improve our efforts.
Many areas we build in are disadvantaged. Our people at Milne Electric use these opportunities to hire local minority workers, speak at schools, community centers, colleges, and more to introduce and assist those who may want to consider the trades as a career.
We support local community activities in which we build. We are proud supporters of the Rainier Beach Ravens Junior Football league. Skanska’s Bricks and Books Auction, and Monroe Equity Council, and more.
Through our community outreach, we help guide potential electricians by helping them become pre-apprentices. We often hire individuals early for various positions and provide mentoring so they can see what electricians do first hand. This regularly leads to apprenticeships and a solid career. Our goals are to:
