Corporate Responsibility

At ONEOK, corporate social responsibility is interwoven into everything we do – from daily operations to community enrichment. We are, and always have been, committed to operating our assets safely, efficiently and environmentally responsibly.

We aspire to be a leader in protecting the environment, safety and health of our employees, contractors, customers and the public.

The company’s Environment, Safety and Health initiative provides a strategic platform to provide leadership and direction to environmental, safety and health, compliance and asset integrity programs, processes and management systems.

Environment, Safety and Health Commitment

Several of our operational activities recently drew national recognition:

  • The American Gas Association recognized all three of our distribution businesses, serving two million customers in Oklahoma, Kansas and Texas, as top emergency-response performers. Our skills and dedication were proven again last fall when hundreds of our employees from a two-state area worked around the clock to safeguard the public and restore service in the wake of Hurricane Ike along the Gulf Coast.

  • The Environmental Protection Agency named us Natural Gas STAR Gathering and Processing Partner of the Year in connection with our voluntary reduction of methane emissions – one of three greenhouse gases – from line loss.

  • The Occupational Safety and Health Administration recognized three consecutive years of “excellence in health and safety” at our Mont Belvieu, Texas, NGL fractionation facility.
