Protecting Human Rights

ExxonMobil strongly believes that corporations have an important role to play in promoting respect for human rights and that our business presence in developing countries and societies can be a positive influence on issue related to the treatment of people. ExxonMobil condemns human rights abuses. We make it clear to all of our employees and contractors -- as well as police and military forces that provide security to our operations -- that human rights violations will not be tolerated. Our Standards of Business Conduct establish our approach and are consistent with the spirit and intent of the principles of the Universal Declaration of Human rights insofar as they apply to private companies. We participate in the U.S.-U.K. dialogue on "Voluntary Principles on Security and Human rights," with the aim of sharing our best practices and learning form the practices of other companies.
