ICARE Shared Principles

Whether you have a distribution center job, a finance job or a pharmacist job at McKesson Corporation, everything we do at McKesson is driven by our Shared Principles, known as ICARE. These principles unite all employees at McKesson, connecting us across business units, geography and functional areas. Living out these values is what shapes the corporate culture at McKesson. It's what enables us to make a positive difference in the world.

Integrity
We do what's right. Integrity is the impartial and honest standard by which we make decisions and take actions, large and small, every day. In our business, integrity is mandatory, not optional.

Customer-First
We succeed when customers succeed. We put our customers first, no matter what job we hold, no matter whether we work alone or as part of a team. A customer is anyone, even a coworker, to whom we have a responsibility to help succeed.

Accountability
We take personal responsibility. We accomplish what we promise on time and on budget. Part of accountability is pulling your weight as part of a team and actively sharing information and effort.

Respect
We treat people with dignity and consideration. We are diverse as people and professionals, yet our success depends on our mutual trust and teamwork. Diversity builds strength in our team. We are strongest when we are respected by our colleagues and encouraged to contribute to our highest capabilities.

Excellence
We insist on quality. Even as we challenge each other to the highest level of achievement and quality, we also understand that growth is born from risk.
