We diligently assume our social responsibility toward various stakeholder groups. In this context, we feel a particularly strong commitment to our employees, whose health and safety at the workplace have top priority for us. We meet this demand on us as an employer through tested processes, regular checks and targeted training.

It is also important to us to give our employees opportunities for personal development. We therefore offer them a wide range of options that fit their very different background and qualifications, thus giving motivated employees the possibility to advance up the career ladder. Furthermore, we give people with atypical employment histories access to special qualification and training measures, and in many cases are subsequently able to offer them a job within the company. In this context, we see equal opportunities and equal rights as a matter of course, and further promote them through a variety of projects.

As part of our social responsibility, we naturally also attach great importance to the supply chain. We have implemented a Supplier Code of Conduct and other policies, processes and reporting mechanisms as a basis for fulfilling our human rights due diligence obligations.

We have been making a positive contribution to society for many years through our involvement in local and global projects and initiatives. In addition to our commitment to children and young adults as well as to sports, we have been supporting the United Nations World Food Programme for several years by making our logistics expertise available to secure supplies in crisis areas.
