Being part of these organisations and associations, PKN ORLEN has access to knowledge and information about draft regulations for the fuel and power sectors in Poland and Europe, can easily learn about technical solutions and findings of research carried out in other countries, and has an opportunity to share its knowledge and gain new experience. Through its active participation in these organisations, in particular those that bring together employers or promote CSR ideas, PKN ORLEN builds stable relations with its environment.
Organisations and associations of strategic relevance to the ORLEN Group are those which bring together and represent the entire refining, petrochemical and energy industry in Poland and Europe. They represent the industry before public administration and international bodies. One of the key organisations in Poland is the Polish Chamber of Chemical Industry (PIPC), of which PKN ORLEN, ANWIL and ORLEN Eko are active members. Representatives of the ORLEN Group sit on a number of PIPC committees, including: the International Trade Policy Committee, the Transport and Distribution Committee, the Tax Committee, the Sustainable Development Committee, the Technical Committee, the Polymer Materials Committee, the Innovation Committee, the Energy and Climate Committee, the Environmental Protection Committee, the OHS Committee and the Fire Safety Committee. PKN ORLEN has also joined some European organisations of high importance to the industry, including the European Petroleum Refiners Association, in which the Company is among the seven largest members and is thus entitled to a permanent place on its Management Board.
