Community
Our employees engage in many community activities in the communities where they work and live.
Driving Community Development
INEOS has proudly sponsored activities that focus on health, education, the environment and safety. By working with others who care, our employees enjoy a work environment where values do matter and where each individual can make a difference and understands the impact that he or she makes.
The Daily Mile
INEOS Olefins & Polymers USA proudly supports The Daily Mile. The Daily Mile is a simple and free initiative that gets children out of the classroom for fifteen minutes every day to run or jog at their own pace, making them fitter, healthier, and more able to concentrate. The US offices of The Daily Mile are hosted and staffed by INEOS Olefins & Polymers USA at its League City headquarters.
The INEOS ICAN Foundation
The INEOS ICAN Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation. Its mission is to strengthen kids’ love of academics and exercise. It accomplishes this by supporting The Daily Mile program in elementary schools, and through donations made to local education foundations for teaching grants. Its offices are located within the Marina View building in League City, TX. Staffing and support services are provided by INEOS Olefins & Polymers USA. Volunteers for local fundraising events are supplied by INEOS O&P USA and its sister companies: INEOS Styrolution, Nitriles, Oligomers, Oxide, Aromatics and Phenol.
