This film, produced by Standard Oil Company of New Jersey, explains the corporation's approach to company-provided medical services for employees in its hundreds of locations around the world. Because climate, culture, and type and prevalence of disease vary so widely, tailored approaches are called for. The Standard Oil program is described as a four-point effort: preventive, constructive, educative, and curative medicine. Giving examples of each, the film discusses an anti-malaria campaign in Venezuela, amoebic dysentery in Aruba, research and action regarding chemical health hazards, the need for regular physical and mental examinations, and more.
