With ExxonMobil, safety is not only a priority. It is a value that is at the core of our culture. To lead in safety and health, a focus on operating excellence is imperative.
We care deeply about how our operations and products affect our employees, contractors, neighbours and customers. While our operations involve risks, these can be substantially reduced, even eliminated, when managed properly.
Our efforts have led to safety performance that is consistently better than the petroleum industry average. Our objective is to prevent all accidents, injuries, and occupational illness through the active participation of all employees. We are pleased that our contractors have joined us in an all-out effort to see that "Nobody Gets Hurt".
The successful management for safety starts with the involvement of everyone from the CEO to hourly workers in a systematic and continual focus on hazard recognition and mitigation. Production and profits are never more important than safety. Never.
Our passion for safety goes beyond our fence lines and into the communities where we operate. In Singapore and certain parts of Asia, road safety is often a risk to our employees and their communities. We are working with others on various road safety initiatives to reduce risks.
Finally, our commitment to safety extends to the products that we sell. Properly used, our products provide many benefits to society. We identify and manage risks through proper product design, handling procedures, and operating practices to provide the appropriate level of safety for people and the environment.
Within our industry we are a leader in extending knowledge about the health, safety and environmental effects of our products. Learnings are promptly applied and publicly shared.
