Employees' contributions to our United Way campaign are matched by the company. Our campaign theme for the Calgary-based event in 2011 was "Be a Hero."
Maximizing Employee Contributions
Nexen supports employees contributions to charitable and not-for-profit organizations that reflect their personal interests or concerns. The Matching program matches employee contributions to registered charitable or not-for-profit organizations that meet the corporate matching gift guidelines up to a maximum of $20,000 per individual, in any one calendar year.
In 2011, employees in Canada, the U.S. and UK had $2 million in charitable contributions matched by Nexen — the largest sum of contributions we've matched in the history of this program.
Superhuman Effort
Nexen breaks a world record and raises a total of $1.48 million through our United Way campaign.
