We believe that the altruistic goal of helping people sleep better, breathe better, and live higher-quality lives away from a hospital in an ethical, compliant, and sustainable manner is quite simply key to our company’s growth so that we can serve hundreds of millions of people who need our help.

What ESG means to us

ResMed’s overall strategy is grounded in our business sustainability because innovation, ethical business practices, and operational excellence are precisely what enable us to save and enrich millions of lives.

In short, our approach to the environment, our social communities, and best-practice governance is simply part of our DNA.

We believe that the altruistic goal of helping people sleep better, breathe better, and live higher-quality lives away from a hospital in an ethical, compliant, and sustainable manner is quite simply key to our company’s growth so that we can serve hundreds of millions of people who need our help.

We’re also deeply committed to understanding the needs of our team and engaging deeply with their professional and personal development. We are laser-focused on hiring, developing, and advancing the best talent in the field of healthcare.

Our corporate culture demands high levels of innovation and a rigorous code of values and ethics – starting with tone at the top, and all the way through to the customer, including our most important customer, the patient.

Meeting these standards of excellence every day requires an engaged and passionate global team dedicated to innovation and excellence.

We invest heavily in research and development, both through our own world-class team efforts, and in partnership with key outside research organizations that help broaden our impact.

Our corporate culture demands and values this innovation, not just in medical science, but also in disease awareness, policy development, and in our own team’s operating excellence.

Strict legal compliance and an emphasis on safety, quality, environmental, privacy, and data security are all integral elements to the global ResMed culture.
