Here is a statement issued by residential comfort provider Johnson Controls on March 7, 2022:

Johnson Controls and our employees around the world offer our wishes for peace and stability for Ukraine and its people. We believe we all have a role to play in speaking up against violence, and we stand with people around the globe who have united in solidarity to promote peace.

We are focused on ways we can assist our local teams and are providing support to the humanitarian relief efforts in the region. While we are thankful that all of our team members in Ukraine report to be safe, we remain committed to aiding relief efforts and supporting those in need, including those who may be affected as innocent bystanders in this horrific situation.

Our decisions and actions reflect our steadfast values and our commitment to doing what is right. We are inspired by the incredible support that our employees, customers, partners, and communities are showing for Ukrainian people and their rights.

Building on the strong foundation of our employees’ generosity and our dollar-for-dollar match, Johnson Controls will donate $250,000 to assist critical humanitarian relief efforts on the ground in Ukraine.

We’re also taking additional direct and immediate action – Johnson Controls is suspending our business in Russia. As such, Johnson Controls will fulfill existing contractual obligations to the extent possible, and in full compliance with sanctions, while not accepting new business or orders.

Our decisions and actions reflect our steadfast values and our commitment to doing what is right. We are inspired by the incredible support that our employees, customers, partners, and communities are showing for Ukrainian people and their rights.
