Abstract

This study examined the relationship between green environmental management practices and community sustainability in ExxonMobil operations in Eket, Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria. A survey research design was adopted with a sample of 240 respondents drawn from a population of 600 using Taro Yamane’s sampling technique. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using percentages and regression analysis. The findings indicate a positive relationship between green environmental management practices, organizational environmental stewardship, pollution prevention standards, and community sustainability. The study recommends that ExxonMobil maintain transparency in environmental and community impact reporting and strengthen stakeholder engagement to enhance trust and accountability with local communities.
