The report focuses on Medtronic global corporate citizenship efforts, which include the economic, social, and environmental areas where the company can make the greatest impact. It details FY19 progress against four pillars of Medtronic global corporate citizenship and sustainability: Adding Value to Society, Promoting Environmental Stewardship, Supporting a Global Workforce, and Working Responsibly. Within the report, Medtronic addresses key issues critical to the company and its stakeholders, such as access to care, product stewardship, ethics in sales and marketing, responsible supply management, and product quality.
“Our foremost priority is to contribute to human welfare,” said Omar Ishrak, Medtronic chairman and chief executive officer. “Today we are executing on the strongest product pipeline in Medtronic’s history, bringing to market a long list of technology innovations that will, in the words of our Mission, alleviate pain, restore health, and extend life for millions of people around the world.”
The report also highlights the company’s commitment to recognizing the personal worth of all employees, including providing equal pay for equal work. In FY19, Medtronic achieved 99% overall for gender pay equity — and 100% in several countries, including the United States. A further U.S. ethnic diversity analysis found that for every $1.00 Caucasian employees earned, ethnically diverse employees in equivalent roles earned $0.99.
“While we are pleased with these results, I assure you that our journey won’t stop until we ensure and sustain 100% pay equity for all,” said Ishrak.
In FY19, Medtronic reported ethnically diverse talent held 22% of leadership positions in the United States — surpassing the company’s 2020 target of 20% or more. In addition, 38% of all global leadership positions were held by women, on track to meet the company’s 2020 target of 40% or more, putting us closer to our ultimate aspiration of 50%. Medtronic’s continued commitment to inclusion and diversity is further described through the company’s inaugural Global Inclusion, Diversity, and Equity Report [view report here].
