JohnsonDiversey's purpose is to protect lives, preserve the earth and transform our industry.
It is by living our purpose that we will deliver a cleaner, healthier future.
In these clear, bold terms, we have defined why we exist as a company and what we expect of ourselves and our work. Our purpose sets forth the specific manner in which we embrace the critical social, environmental and economic implications of sustainability.
Our purpose draws on our 123-year heritage of sustainability that spans five generations of the Johnson family ownership. It is a heritage we cherish and honor by the actions we take to ensure it continues. Our leadership in sustainability has been recognized and valued by our customers, our employees and our communities. It has earned the respect of leaders and experts in sustainable business practices, including L. Hunter Lovins, an influential voice in sustainability and President of Natural Capitalism Solutions, an organization dedicated to helping restore and enhance natural and human capital while increasing prosperity and the quality of life for everyone.
"JohnsonDiversey is a company of integrity, clearly leading large companies in its industry through sustainability disciplines integrated with its entire business. The company's commitment to climate protection is outstanding, and its effort to continuously improve the sustainability profile of its products stands apart from the modest efforts of most companies."
Integrating sustainability throughout our entire business is the responsibility of our senior leaders and depends on the efforts of all our employees. We have established a framework of continuous improvement that focuses on aligning their efforts to live our purpose in six critically important areas: with our customers, with our partners, in our workforce, in our communities, throughout our facilities and in every aspect of our governance. This report details how we've done that.
