Husky’s environmental, social and governance (ESG) topics for sustainability reporting are those that, in the view of management, affect Husky’s performance and long-term sustainability and/or inform investor assessments or decisions about us.


We formalized our ESG materiality assessment process in 2017, conducting interviews and considering information from investors, analysts and community members. This was used to compile our ESG material topics.

Workshops were held with management and senior executives to approve and prioritize the list of ESG topics based on risk, performance and impact. The topics below have been approved by Husky’s Executive Committee and the Executive Health, Safety and Environment Committee. These will be reviewed on an annual basis to ensure emerging topics are considered, with the list adjusted accordingly.

Throughout this report you will find information on our programs that support each of these ESG topics, as well as information on our performance. Our performance data table provides quantitative information. It is aligned with the voluntary sustainability reporting guidance developed by IPIECA, along with the International Association of Oil and Gas Producers (IOGP) and the American Petroleum Institute (API).
