Johnson and Johnson a Company with a Mission

Johnson and Johnson as a typical household name we all know and love. We hold it to high standard because it offers quality products that we can trust at reasonable prices. After reading Johnson and Johnson's credo it is easy to see how they were able to make a name for themselves and stand so strong. The company takes all factors into consideration. They mention that their first responsibility is to doctors, nurses, patients, mothers, fathers, suppliers, distributers, and of course their employees. When considering their customers, they constantly strive for high quality and reasonable prices. The company also states that their suppliers and distributer must have opportunities to make a fair profit. Aside from their customers the other most important aspects are their employees. To them every employee must be considered as an individual whom deserves respect and dignity along recognizing their merit. Their employees must feel safe in their jobs, which includes have the right to fair compensation and clean, orderly and safe working conditions. The acknowledge that the families of their employees are a big and important responsibility. Johnson and Johnson also recognizes the community and wants to encourage civic improvements, support of charities, and protecting the environment and natural resources. The last and final responsibility they see is to their stockholders. They promise to continue research, innovative programs, new products and much more. Johnson and Johnson is a company that covers just about anything in their mission statement, which is quite impressive. No wonder they have been around forever and will continue to supply great products at reasonable prices.

  1. After reading this post, I almost want to change the title of my post. While there are a lot of other countries who make high quality products and have reasonable prices like I mentioned, good companies do exist in the US as well. Johnson and Johnson is one of them. I find it so motivating that this company has survived for over a century, despite ups and downs in the economies and changes in what people want. I went and looked up Johnson and Johnson's credo so I could read it myself and it is very comforting to the consumer. On their website they even present it in a video form with images and easy to follow text. Johnson and Johnson is a trusted company that has proved it has reliable products made by reliable workers. If more companies placed more effort on making good products for less and worked on earning their consumers trust, they would likely succeed like J & J. Just for reference, this is the website I looked at:
