Johns Manville has approximately 7,000 to 8,000 employees worldwide as of recent years 2023 to 2024, with exact number fluctuating due to acquisitions, plant openings, and market conditions. According to Berkshire Hathaway annual reports and Johns Manville corporate information, employee count is around 7,300 to 7,800 globally, including manufacturing workers, engineers, sales, and corporate staff at Denver headquarters. The company has about 40 to 45 plants across North America, Europe, and Asia, with majority of employees in United States, including plants in Defiance, Ohio, McPherson, Kansas, Scottsboro, Alabama, and others, plus plant in Innisfail, Alberta, Canada. Johns Manville is owned by Berkshire Hathaway since 2001 and is part of building products group. Historically, Johns Manville had more employees when it was large asbestos manufacturer, with over 30,000 employees at peak in 1970s before asbestos litigation and bankruptcy in 1982 led to downsizing. After reorganization in 1988, employee count was reduced and focused on insulation and roofing. Today, Johns Manville employs around 7,000 to 8,000, making it mid-sized big company in building materials, with stable employment due to Berkshire Hathaway ownership providing long-term stability rather than short-term profit pressure. So employee count is approximately 7,500 worldwide.
