Sustainability at
Group Level

When national regulation and industry or customer requirements permit, we see value in establishing Group-wide standards and common policies for all our business activities, particularly in governance-related issues such as compliance, information security and data protection, or human rights issues and supply chain responsibility. Ensuring that certain standards are maintained in all parts of our Group is an essential element of our overall risk management. We also consider an overarching approach to be useful when it comes to people responsibility. Through regular exchange between the respective experts at Group, divisional and business unit level, we benefit from the knowledge within our organization and ensure that common standards are compatible with business needs and local conditions.
