A leading commercial energy consulting firm, DNE helps businesses across Canada and deregulated markets in the United States make well-informed energy procurement and management decisions. Their experienced energy consultants help companies implement strategies that allow them to stabilize their energy budget, reduce carbon footprint, and achieve energy goals. In addition to doing right by their clients, DNE firmly believes in doing right by their team. In support of that goal, DNE is implementing quarterly Wellness Wednesdays that enable employees to learn more about relevant health and wellness topics.
Co-founders Wayne Burke and Steve Shoiry founded DNE in 2009 to help companies take charge of their energy procurement. The two friends also incorporated into their growing company their belief that doing good and making money can go hand in hand. They believed that giving back to the community, their customers, and their team would add to the value of their business and help them grow. On the heels of implementing a 4-day work week, DNE’s implementation of Wellness Wednesdays speaks to their commitment to taking care of their team members.
“At DNE, we have made some unconventional decisions recently,” remarked Shoiry. “To some employers, it might seem counterintuitive to shorten the workweek. Others may consider it unproductive to use time at work to focus on wellness topics. But I firmly believe these changes will benefit our team beyond what they learn on Wellness Wednesday because these new initiatives also demonstrate that DNE recognizes their contributions and is willing to invest not only in their career but in their quality of life.”
DNE has four core values that guide the energy management company. “Mind. Body. Family. Business.” is a core value that reminds everyone at DNE of the importance of building a solid mental and physical health foundation. A strong mind and body are prerequisites for contributing in meaningful ways to family and business. The purpose of quarterly Wellness Wednesday meetings at DNE is to build this strong foundation.
“Happy and healthy employees are better equipped to contribute to the team,” stated Shoiry. “Which is why we chose to focus our Wellness Wednesdays in Q1 and Q2 on personal finances and healthy eating. We hope that our team will take advantage of and use the valuable information shared by experts during these meetings to improve their personal lives.”
DNE has been recognized as one of Canada’s Best Workplaces since 2015. They are also Great Place to Work-CertifiedTM. To learn more about DNE and how their energy consultants help companies improve their energy management strategies, visit www.DNEResources.com or call 888-631-7977.
