Why Your Startup Should Invest in Employee Health

There are a million things to consider when starting your first, second, or even third
business.
New variables always present themselves. Each generation of employees and consumers want and expect different things.

But if you look at the most successful companies, they have done it one of two ways. They have either created something so amazing that it can't fail, or they have grown to power by empowering their people.

This Is Your Brain With Schizophrenia: How the Illness Manifests and What Researchers Are Doing to Help

Even if you don’t know anyone who has schizophrenia, chances are you’re familiar with the symptoms.

People with the condition may experience hallucinations, delusions and paranoia, as well as have difficulty concentrating, organizing their thoughts and doing basic tasks of everyday life.

For many years, doctors had little insight into the illness beyond patients’ self-reported symptoms. The causes of schizophrenia, and the way it impacts the brain, were mostly a mystery due to the unique challenges researchers faced in trying to understand the most complex—and least accessible—organ in the body.

Beating NCDs: Why It’s Time to Count Nestlé In!

At the start of the 20th century, the concept of “workplace wellness,” if it had existed, would have been an oxymoron: The American Industrial Revolution was afoot, and many workers were putting in long hours in dangerous conditions without breaks or benefits.

But Johnson & Johnson has always been more of a trend starter than a follower.

The Neonatal Resuscitation Program: How a Partnership Between the U.S. and China Saved Thousands of Babies

Why Johnson & Johnson Wants to Help Make Today's Babies the Healthiest Generation Yet

Here’s a confession: In the middle of the night, all new parents talk to their babies. Not just cooing and singing, but long, discursive conversations that start like this: Hi Baby, who in the world are you?

Partially it’s because we’re all sleep-deprived—and partially it’s because we are so full of hope and wonder.

Whatever the details of the conversation (What kind of movies will you like? Who are you going to date? Are you going to share my taste in footwear?), there is one ever-present topic foremost on our minds: How am I going to keep you, Baby, healthy and happy?Because that’s a parent's job.

And that’s what Johnson & Johnson sees as its job, too.
