About This Report
Marathon Oil Corporation's 2009 Living Our Values Corporate Social Responsibility Report provides information on the Company's non-financial performance and our actions to promote sustainable social, environmental and economic benefits. For the past several years, we have related Marathon's Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) performance by arranging our report around the Company's five long-established core values: health and safety, environmental stewardship, honesty and integrity, corporate citizenship and a high performance team culture.
This year's report marks a change in our reporting structure to align it with an Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) format used by many reporters and report users. To this ESG format, we add Workforce to address issues relevant to our employees. Our reporting remains rooted in Living Our Values, but consolidates related topics and streamlines our printed report.
More significantly, this year we articulate 16 broad goals across these Environmental, Social, Governance and Workforce (ESGW) categories. At the start of each ESGW section, we set the stage for these goals by itemizing "Where We Are," summarizing Marathon's current status relative to the specific topic. We then lay out our longer-term targets, or goals, by describing "Where We Want To Be." These goals were established through an intensive collaborative process with action plans that support our efforts to address critical sustainability challenges. In "What We Are Doing To Get There," we discuss some of these action plans.
This CSR report continues to be based on the Oil & Gas Industry Guidance on Voluntary Sustainability Reporting, published jointly by the International Petroleum Industry Environmental Conservation Association (IPIECA) and the American Petroleum Institute (API). This Guidance provides a common framework for the petroleum industry to use in reporting non-financial performance. We include quantitative metrics and descriptions of policies, programs and practices to provide relevant and meaningful information about the Company's operations and non-financial performance.
