Highlights from this year’s Report
Johnson & Johnson has a longstanding commitment to addressing unmet needs of underserved populations. As the largest healthcare company in the world, we have an opportunity, and a duty, to impact the health of people everywhere, and this is especially relevant today as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to lay bare and exacerbate the disparities in healthcare systems worldwide.
At Johnson & Johnson, the world’s largest healthcare company, we tirelessly strive to improve access to our innovative medicines, vaccines, devices and diagnostics in all countries, and especially for underserved and vulnerable populations in resource-limited settings. For almost one-third of the global population, medicines and vaccines are not an option.
Our mission is to make diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) how we work every day. We know that bringing together our diverse backgrounds, cultures, and perspectives drives innovation to solve today’s complex health problems. We continue to challenge ourselves on what it means to prioritize DEI in every business decision we make, and we leverage our DEI strategy, policies and programs to provide our workforce the support and opportunities they need to help create a healthier, more equitable world. For more information, see our Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Policy.
