SKILLMAN, N.J.  — Kenvue is affirming its commitment to its Healthy Lives Mission, the company’s environmental, social and governance strategy, designed to advance the well-being of both people and planet. Kenvue plans to share progress towards its goals and commitments in its inaugural Healthy Lives Mission Report in June 2024.

“Consumers are increasingly prioritizing sustainability, looking for solutions that are healthier for their families and better for the planet,” said Pamela Gill-Alabaster, Global Head of ESG & Sustainability. “Our Healthy Lives Mission is focused on nine priority topics for which we have set goals and commitments to hold us accountable for progress and help drive impact in the areas where we are positioned to make a difference for both people and planet.”

The Healthy Lives Mission aims to build lasting positive change for people, communities, and the planet through three pillars:

  • Healthy People: Kenvue aims to advance the well-being of the communities in which the company operates and equips them with innovative products and actionable information to make healthier decisions every day.
  • Healthy Planet: Kenvue strives to enrich a healthy planet by making responsible and renewable choices to help safeguard the earth’s health and resources while managing the impacts the company creates.
  • Healthy Practice: Kenvue believes in promoting a culture of integrity, ethics, and transparency to build trust and create meaningful, long-term value.

In support of these pillars, Kenvue set the following 19 goals and commitments:
