Partnerships

As Johnson Controls strives to be a business partner, employer and supplier of choice, we realize that our ability to make progress in this area will require increased collaboration where employees are engaged to drive results. We uphold valuable corporate partnerships with many global, national, local and professional organizations. We actively partner with these organizations year-round on different programs and initiatives as well as national recruiting events. These partnerships grant us access to top talent, research and benchmarking information as well as networking and professional development opportunities for our employees.

Employer Information Report

In furtherance of transparency and our commitment to business decisions made consistent with merit-based principles and all applicable non-discrimination requirements, we have elected to publish information regarding the composition of our workforce.

The data in the link provided below on the composition of JCI’s U.S. workforce is pulled from our most recent annual submission to the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and data reflects a snapshot period of December 15, 2022 to December 30, 2022. The report breaks down the Company’s workforce by categories required by the EEOC. While the EEOC mandates the use of the specific job categories shown, these categories do not always reflect how JCI organizes its workforce. As a result, each EEOC job category may encompass a range of JCI job titles and job grades.
