Malaria Control Program

ExxonMobil’s comprehensive Malaria Control Program covers both employees and contractors working in malaria-prone areas. The program combats malaria through awareness, mosquito bite prevention, anti-malaria medication, and early diagnosis and treatment. Since 2005, we have recorded no cases of malaria among our (nonimmune) expatriate employees, and there were no reported cases of serious malaria among our national (semi-immune) employees. As our contractors adopt controls similar to our own, their rates of malaria continue to drop, with only six recorded malaria cases among nonimmune contract personnel in 2008.
