As a health-based organization, diversity is a fundamental tenant at Johnson & Johnson.

The office reports directly to the CEO and is responsible for implementing the company’s diversity initiative, which includes fostering an inclusive culture that embraces differences in the workplace, achieving a skilled, high performing workforce that is reflective of the diverse global marketplace, and working with business leaders to establish targeted market opportunities for consumers across diverse demographic segments.
