Stakeholder Engagement

How We Consult With Stakeholders

Syncrude's stakeholder engagement cycle helps us understand the questions and concerns stakeholders have about the potential impacts of proposed Syncrude activities. Our consultation processes can be either formal (designed to achieve a specific outcome) or informal (information sharing and dialogue) and are determined by both Syncrude and the affected stakeholder. They are guided by an overarching set of consultation principles. (View the consultation principles at www.syncrude.com/community).

We consult with a broad range of stakeholders including Aboriginal communities, advocacy groups, contractors, educators, governments, industry groups, local community residents, non-governmental organizations, suppliers and other interested parties. (Engagement with Syncrude employees is discussed here.)

stakeholder relations

Regional stakeholders want to be involved in Syncrude's plans.

Syncrude regularly invites stakeholders to participate in a consultation process. This helps us to understand and act on their ideas and concerns.
