This Code of Conduct (CoC) provides the framework for our responsible and ethical conduct in all areas of our business activities. It serves as a guideline for the behavior of our employees as well as our business partners and establishes clear requirements for interaction with each other and with external stakeholders. Our goal is to contribute to a positive corporate culture and promote sustainable business practices through transparency, integrity, and respect.
The objective of the Code of Conduct is to ensure responsible, legally compliant, and ethically sound behavior. It defines our core values and principles and helps to anchor them in the daily work environment. In doing so, we place the interests of our employees, customers, suppliers, as well as the environment and society at the center of our decisions, thereby creating the basis for successful and trust-based cooperation in the long term.
For us, responsible corporate governance means taking responsibility for the consequences of our decisions and actions in economic, technological, social, and ecological terms and bringing about an appropriate balance of interests. We orient ourselves both by laws and regulations and by universally applicable ethical values and principles.
We are actively involved in society and support social projects or associations in the regions where we operate. We promote the voluntary engagement of our employees and support their initiatives.
This CoC applies to all employees. At the same time, we commit to promoting compliance with the contents of this CoC also among our suppliers and in the wider value chain within our respective possibilities and areas of action.
We expect our management to set an example by not only communicating these rules but also living them and requiring them from employees. They are the primary contacts for all questions concerning this Code of Conduct.
We orient our actions toward universally applicable ethical values and principles, in particular integrity, mutual appreciation, righteousness, respect for human dignity, openness, and non-discrimination regarding religion, worldview, gender, and ethnicity.
We are committed to equal opportunity and do not tolerate discrimination. We promote diversity and inclusion in our company and respect the personal dignity, privacy, and personal rights of every individual.
