Our Commitment to Safety, Security, Health, and the Environment
ExxonMobil’s Operations Integrity Management System (OIMS) is a cornerstone of our commitment to managing safety,
security, health, and environmental risks, and achieving excellence in performance. The OIMS framework establishes
common worldwide expectations for managing risks inherent to our business and addresses all aspects that can impact
personnel and process safety, security, health, and environmental performance. The focus on process safety protects our
workforce, our equipment and assets, the local environment, and the communities in which we operate.
OIMS provides the structure to help us meet or exceed applicable regulations and relevant industry standards. We continually
assess the framework and its effectiveness, and incorporate learnings to further improve performance. OIMS is implemented
consistently around the world in all business lines, and compliance is tested on a regular basis. As we manage the safety,
security, health, and environmental risks in our business, we focus our efforts on understanding the root cause and potential
consequence of each injury, spill, or process safety event. We assess the facilities and effectiveness of our procedures,
personnel training, and execution discipline to gain insight from actual, near-miss, or potential events, then share the learnings
across our businesses. Through
analysis of past or potential events,
including industry events, the aim
is to prevent incidents.
Risk Management
We take a systematic approach
to risk management, guided by
OIMS. Every activity contains
some element of risk – whether
technical, operational, procedural,
financial, or environmental. We
each take responsibility to identify
the elements of risk inherent in
all our endeavors. We look to
understand the consequences
associated with these risks and find solutions that would eliminate, mitigate, or manage the risk to an acceptable level.
Through the use of appropriate protective measures and safeguards, the likelihood or severity of an undesirable event can
be reduced.
Our thoughtful change management approach enables us to effectively identify, plan for, and mitigate changed conditions
and risks along with their potential consequences throughout our operations. As a result, management of change is a key
component of our OIMS framework. Our approach to risk management is supported by well-developed and clearly defined
policies and procedures to ensure that we have a structured, globally consistent system with the highest standards in place.
