Husky strives to establish respectful and mutually-beneficial relationships with Aboriginal communities in those areas where it operates.
To harmonize its interests with the aspirations of Aboriginal communities Husky has an Aboriginal Affairs team that initiates and supports on-going relationships. The team also helps Husky's staff integrate communications and relationships with Aboriginal communities into their responsibilities.
Husky believes that its employees should have an understanding of the Aboriginal communities impacted by its projects.
Husky is committed to consulting with Aboriginal communities regarding its resource development plans and meeting their needs. The Company is proud of the trust established as a result of this approach.
Several Aboriginal communities working with Husky have developed a formal agreement that defines the relationship and a consultation process between them and the Company. Other communities have established consultation processes that do not require a formal agreement.
Husky’s emphasis on consultation is premised on relationships and is based on:
- Supporting community wellness
- Promoting education
- Fostering economic development
Being a good neighbour means stepping beyond day-to-day business activities and becoming involved in the community. Husky is committed to supporting Aboriginal communities in their efforts to enhance community wellness. The Company also sees great value in sharing cultures to promote mutual understanding and respect.
