Our global policies promote diversity and inclusion and prohibit any form of discrimination, including those based on sexual orientation and gender identity. At ExxonMobil, harassment, even in its most subtle forms, directly conflicts with company policy and is not tolerated. Every employee is subject to disciplinary action, including termination, for any act of harassment. We employ a comprehensive training and stewardship program to ensure employees worldwide understand, implement and follow our anti-harassment policy. Additionally, our annual reporting and compliance procedures include a letter to senior managers emphasizing their responsibility to maintain work environments free from harassment and discrimination. Diversity and inclusion We support local employee networks to foster an environ- ment committed to diversity and inclusion. The voluntary, employee-led groups offer networking, development pro- grams and community service, and proactively mentor and assimilate new employees. Some of these networks include:
