Our commitment to corporate responsibility
Responsible corporate governance is the foundation for sustainable success and trust. As part of our governance strategy, we are committed to upholding the highest ethical standards and ensuring transparent, lawful business practices.
Respect for human rights and labor laws
Our commitment begins with full respect for human rights and compliance with all applicable labor laws, as set out in our Code of Business Ethics and Conduct. We ensure that fair working conditions prevail in our operations and along the entire supply chain and that no form of exploitation or discrimination is tolerated.
Prevention of corruption, bribery and money laundering
A key part of our governance strategy is the strict prevention of corruption, bribery and money laundering. We have implemented comprehensive compliance guidelines that make our business practices transparent and comprehensible. Regular training and checks help us to consistently enforce these standards.
Ensuring cyber security and data protection
In an increasingly digital world, we attach particular importance to cyber security and the protection of sensitive data. We ensure that all data protection regulations are strictly adhered to and that our IT infrastructure is protected against threats. This includes regular security checks and the use of state-of-the-art technologies to defend against cyber-attacks.
Risk management and tax compliance
Effective risk management is another pillar of our corporate governance. We identify and assess potential risks at an early stage in order to minimize their impact on our company and our stakeholders. In addition, we are committed to tax compliance and help to ensure that our tax practices are transparent and compliant.
Environmentally friendly procurement
Our commitment to responsible corporate governance also extends to our procurement policy. With the introduction of the Code of Conduct and the procurement guidelines for suppliers, we ensure that our suppliers share our high standards in the areas of environmental protection and sustainability. We specifically focus on environmentally friendly procurement practices and prefer to work with partners who have also internalized these values.
