Abstract: Overview Given that Johnson & Johnson is the largest health care company in the world, it stands to reason that it would extend the same level of excellence it is known to have for its health and wellness products, to the health and wellness of its own employees. By adopting the philosophies of “caring for the world one person at a time”, the Johnson & Johnson health and wellness programs reach around the globe, and touch employees’ homes. The programs aim at prevention, but are also constructed to respond without judgment, and treat the individual throughout the health continuum. It has strived for — and achieved — a “culture of health” throughout the corporation that is spreading into the communities in which employees live and work. This case study focuses on the components of Johnson & Johnson’s “Health and Wellness Program”.
