Our Approach

About this Publication

Diversity and inclusion are key competitive strengths -- critical to maintaining our position as
the world’s leading energy and petrochemical company.

Through a wide range of programs, activities and investments, we strive to create and maintain
a diverse, representative workforce, guided by the following objectives:

- To be recognized as employer of choice by an increasingly diverse workforce;

- To achieve a mix of employees with requisite skills culturally reflective of the locations where
we operate;
- To value diverse backgrounds, skills and abilities, recognizing individual contribution;
- And to establish and improve programs, systems and practices that support diversity in our
workforce.
Message from the CEO

ExxonMobil is truly a global organization, with operations around the world.

Our global reach is evident in more than just our physical locations. Worldwide, ExxonMobil’s
workforce reflects the local communities in which we operate, giving us a diverse and multi-facet-
ed employee base of unique individuals -- each with ideas and perspectives born of their distinct
backgrounds.

That diversity and inclusion of thought, skill, knowledge and culture makes us more competitive,
more resilient and better able to navigate the complex and constantly changing global energy
business. Diversity strengthens us by promoting unique viewpoints and challenging each of us,
every day, to think beyond our traditional frames of reference.

To ensure that we continually leverage the strengths of this diverse workforce, we foster a work
environment that treats all employees with respect, values unique perspectives, encourages indi-
vidual growth and achievement, and rewards people based on their performance. Wherever we
do business, our objective is to seek out and hire talented, dedicated employees from all walks
of life and give them the opportunity to learn, grow and succeed.

As you review the following pages, you will see that our diversity and inclusion efforts are com-
prehensive. They range from recruiting and career development to educational partnerships and
supplier diversity initiatives designed to improve the quality of life where we live and work.

Our record is one of which employees and shareholders can be proud, and we pledge to con-
tinue our work to ensure that ExxonMobil remains a global company in every sense of the word.

ExxonMobil’s U.S. Supplier Diversity program focuses on growing our business with
Minority and Women Business Enterprises (MWBE) based in the United States. In
2006, ExxonMobil’s purchases from minority and woman-owned businesses exceeded
$590 million. ExxonMobil was recognized in 2006 by the Women’s Business Enterprise
National Council as one of the top corporations doing business with women-owned
businesses in the U.S.

In addition to our purchases from MWBEs, ExxonMobil provides development and

training to these businesses. We fund scholarships for MWBE business owners to at-
tend courses at Northwestern University’s Kellogg Graduate School of Management
and the University of Virginia’s Darden School of Business. In recognition of our long-
standing commitment to supporting minority and woman-owned businesses, Exxon-
Mobil has twice been honored as the U.S. National Minority Supplier Develop-
ment Council’s Corporation of the Year.

ExxonMobil has also supported the effort to ex-

tend the National Minority Supplier Development
Council model outside the U.S. in countries
such as Canada, the United Kingdom
and Brazil.

Global Workforce

......................................................................................
We are dedicated
to maximizing the Our Approach
number of local
employment op-
portunities wherever
we do business. The
development of a global
workforce that is repre-
sentative of our geographic
presence promotes workforce
diversity and access to local knowledge, and
helps integrate the Corporation into localities
around the world.
ExxonMobil recognizes that investing in local
workforces around the world is essential to
the long-term sustainability of our business.
We are particularly focused on hiring local em-
ployees in emerging and developing econo-
mies. Local employees are being trained in
increasing numbers for operational and lead-
ership roles in both their home countries and
around the world. Talented employees may be
developed through assignments throughout
the Corporation’s global operations.
Focusing on Sakhalin Island (Russia)
Offshore Sakhalin Oblast in the Russian Far
East, ExxonMobil subsidiary Exxon Neftegas
Limited (ENL) is developing the Chayvo,
Odoptu, and Arkutun-Dagi oil and gas fields
for the Sakhalin-1 consortium.
Our technical training programs for suppliers
and contractors continue to reach more Sakh-
alin residents. Working with the U.S. Agency
for International Development (USAID), we
helped welders improve their skills through
certification classes and granted microfinance
loans to encourage development of small-
and medium-sized businesses, improving the
oil services sector on Sakhalin.
ENL, along with its partners in the Sakhalin-1
Consortium, contributed another $200,000
to the loan fund of small- and medium-sized
businesses in North Sakhalin in 2005, and a
second office for the program was opened in
Okha. Officials from USAID and ENL met with
contractors at Sakhalin-1 project sites in 2005
to start bringing together local entrepreneurs,
business opportunities, and financing for the
benefit of all.
Since 2002, ENL has recruited 110 operations
technicians and engineers for its production
facilities located either on Sakhalin Island or
the DeKastri terminal on the Russian Federa-
tion mainland. Each new employee completes
a five-year training program in preparation for
a future role in operations.

In Sakhalin, as in every region where we oper-

ate, we seek to hire local employees, build
capacity, and contribute to local economic
progress.
