ONE COMPANY, ONE MISSION
Written in 1960, our Mission dictates that our first and foremost priority is to contribute to human welfare. Over a half-century later, the Mission continues to serve as our ethical framework and inspirational goal for our employees around the world.
"We are restoring people by the millions to full life. that helps people feel positive about their efforts."

一家企业，一项使命
我们的企业使命确立于 1960 年，这一使命决定了我们的首要任务是为人类福祉作贡献。半个多世纪以来，这一使命成为我们工作的道德框架和我们全球各地员工的精神目标。
THE MEDTRONIC MISSION
To contribute to human welfare by application of biomedical engineering in the research, design, manufacture, and sale of instruments or appliances that alleviate pain, restore health, and extend life.
To direct our growth in the areas of biomedical engineering where we display maximum strength and ability; to gather people and facilities that tend to augment these areas; to continuously build on these areas through education and knowledge assimilation; to avoid participation in areas where we cannot make unique and worthy contributions.
To strive without reserve for the greatest possible reliability and quality in our products; to be the unsurpassed standard of comparison and to be recognized as a company of dedication, honesty, integrity, and service.
To make a fair profit on current operations to meet our obligations, sustain our growth, and reach our goals.
To recognize the personal worth of all employees by providing an employment framework that allows personal satisfaction in work accomplished, security, advancement opportunity, and means to share in the company's success.
To maintain good citizenship as a company.
Medtronic introduced a Mission and Medallion Ceremony in 1974 to celebrate its 15th anniversary. Now held many times a year at facilities all over the world, the ceremony is a symbolic way of bringing new employees together behind our common purpose. Each employee receives a medallion as a reminder of the honor and responsibility we have in fulfilling our Mission.
