Community outreach. Plant managers meet regularly with community leaders to discuss environmental and safety performance.
Explore & Experiment. Through LyondellBasell’s Explore & Experiment program, our employee volunteers offer hands-on science activities to local classrooms, sparking student interest in science. We also offer area teachers science-training workshops that help them use our Explore & Experiment curriculum in the classroom.
We also have contributed to the New Jersey Chemical Council Education Foundation to support educational initiatives that engage students in learning about science.
Global Care Day. Thousands of our employees, worldwide, work to make a difference in the world by joining this annual community-service day.
This year, our employee volunteers helped the YMCA Oakcrest Family Swim Club prepare for the summer. They landscaped, cleaned, set up equipment and helped with other beautification projects.
In years past, we have supported Pathways to Independence, which serves developmentally disabled adults from our area.
Philanthropy. Our employees open their hearts and wallets to support local organizations. For example, they generously support local community-service agencies through an annual payroll-pledge campaign for the United Way.
Volunteerism. We encourage our employees’ engagement in the local community.
Collectively, our employees spend hundreds of hours each month in volunteer service. They serve as emergency responders, science-fair judges, referees, mentors, Scout leaders, teachers, coaches and school-board members.
