Declaration of principle on respect

human rights and the environment

Our risk management

We have established a comprehensive risk management system to identify and minimise human rights violations and environmental risks at an early stage.

• Supplier screening and certificates: regular monitoring and documentation using centralised tools.
• Whistleblower system: An anonymous platform enables the reporting of violations.
• Measures: Targeted escalations and adjustments guarantee compliance with our standards.

Focus areas of our responsibility

• Occupational health and safety: A safe working environment protects the physical and mental health of all employees.
• Environmental protection: We focus on resource-saving technologies, waste avoidance and the reduction of emissions.
• Fair remuneration and working conditions: Decent jobs are essential for the well-being of our employees.
• Transparency and integrity: Clear rules and fair processes promote trust and equality.

Our expectations

We expect our employees and business partners to actively live by the values and standards set out in our declaration of principles. These principles are defined in binding codes and promote sustainable and fair cooperation.

A strong foundation for the future

With our declaration of principles, we are committed to sustainable corporate governance and contribute to social and ecological responsibility. Together, we are working for a fairer world that is more worth living in.
