Building authentic relationships
We act responsibly and run our business in ways that protect safety, support sustainability and strengthen the communities where our people live and work.
A genuine approach to respectful operations
We build strong community relationships by leading with respect, listening carefully and following through responsibly. Guided by local context and feedback, we engage early and openly—and work to reduce operational impacts through education, innovation and proactive planning.
Our teams build trust through direct engagement with residents, governments and other stakeholders—answering questions, explaining our processes and sharing plans.
Our Indigenous Commitment
Our Indigenous Commitment outlines four key principles – Community, Connect, Partner and Action – that guide our efforts to support Indigenous inclusion and opportunity.
This principle-based approach is grounded in the traditional Indigenous Medicine Wheel. The traditional wheel represents the interconnectedness of the natural world and how all things grow and work together.
A lasting, positive impact on communities
We know our responsibility starts with the places where we live and work. We’re dedicated to giving back and working hard to help build safer, stronger communities.
Funding areas
Our community investment program supports organizations across our operating areas and reflects our commitment to being a safe, responsible and respectful neighbour.
We prioritize support that strengthens community safety and emergency response, expands access to education and job-ready training, and improves community wellness by helping meet basic needs and supporting health care and mental well-being.
We accept requests for charitable support year-round through our online application system.
Building talent, capability and belonging
At Ovintiv, we invest in the talent, capabilities and leadership needed to support resilient operations and drive performance. We foster an inclusive, collaborative culture where everyone has the opportunity to grow, contribute and succeed.
Our employee-led network groups play a vital role in fostering connection, collaboration, and personal growth across Ovintiv, helping to build a supportive and inclusive workplace community.
Trusted partnerships built on agility and respect
At Ovintiv, we take an integrated approach to supply chain management—connecting corporate operations with the field.
We build transparent, long-term relationships with suppliers who share our high safety standards. We take the time to understand who we are working with and how they operate, while also supporting local businesses in our operating areas to maintain a strong local presence and help encourage new investment.
Modern slavery prevention and protecting human rights
Ovintiv is committed to supporting the protection and preservation of human rights throughout our operations. This includes preventing forced labor, child labor, and human rights abuses from occurring throughout all our operating areas and extended supply chains.
