Connecting with the larger purpose of our work.
Organizations and people that are able to connect their daily work with a larger overall purpose will be rewarded with higher levels of fulfillment, accomplishment, employee engagement, and job satisfaction. Those who work in the field of the life sciences have a direct opportunity to achieve positive impact on the human condition. For BD (Becton, Dickinson and Co.), this opportunity has manifested itself through medical technology advances that have contributed to human health for over a century. These competencies are currently being applied to help address some of the most important health challenges facing the developing world, such as pandemic disease, child health, and the need to establish sufficient and sustainable access to health and laboratory services. This work is being pursued through commercial activity, technical training and support, public-private sector collaboration, philanthropy, and volunteerism.
