Corporate responsibility reporting

As part of our commitment to operating in a responsible manner, we recognize the importance of reporting to stakeholders in a transparent and accountable way. We disclose not only the information that's required by law and regulation, but also information that more broadly describes our activities, policies, opportunities and risks. Read our Corporate Responsibility Policy.

Our strategic approach

Whether we're meeting with community leaders, groups and landowners, working with Aboriginal communities, presenting to investors and government officials or doing media interviews - we remain committed to telling our story. We want to help all our stakeholders understand our company, the quality of our asset base, the strength and expertise of our teams, our solid financial position and our commitment to operating safely and responsibly.

We work toward this goal through:

Signing a long-term agreement with Conklin

Cenovus has created a long-term agreement with the community of Conklin, Alberta, which will provide mutual benefits for as many as 40 years into the future. The agreement was approved by the community after a ratification vote in December 2010.

The agreement outlines our commitment to working with the Conklin community on matters including:

Cenovus is the first oil and gas company to enter into an agreement of this kind with the community. We're supporting the Conklin community's ability to understand and reduce the potential impacts of development while participating in the associated long-term benefits. As Cenovus expands its development, the community will receive additional support to help it manage any potential effects of growth.

Working with Stakeholders

We're building relationships with our stakeholders, engaging in dialogue, responding to questions and seeking to understand any concerns. Our stakeholders include groups such as shareholders and other investors, financial institutions, employees, business partners, communities, Aboriginal peoples, governments and non-government organizations.
