More fairness & sustainability

Digital innovation and social responsibility combined

For us, the common good report is more than just a key figure. It stands for our commitment to placing social responsibility, environmental sustainability and fair business practices at the centre of our actions. On a scale of -3,600 to +1,000, we managed to increase our score from 324 to an impressive 371 points in the current audit – a clear sign that we are continuously improving.

What this increase means for us

  • Strengthening our commitment:
    We have made significant progress in many areas that emphasise our deep commitment to the common good.
  • Growth in responsibility:
    The increased score shows that we are not just talking, but also acting – for a better and fairer world.
  • Continuous improvement:
    This increase is an incentive for us to continue working on our goals with full commitment and to achieve even more.
Learn, grow, get better

Focus on our balance sheet

Our current rebalancing has provided us with valuable insights – we can see where we are strong and where we can improve. These findings motivate us to continue to refine our strategy and make even more targeted use of our commitment.

  • Significant improvement in key areas
    We have improved in 23 out of 60 areas. Progress in the areas of supplier relations and employee satisfaction is particularly noteworthy. Here, we have refined our processes and implemented new measures, such as our junior staff program and the “Workation” project, which help to strengthen employee loyalty.
  • Consistency and stability in most areas
    We have kept our score stable at a high level in 36 areas. This consistency, particularly in the environmental sustainability and transparency of our business processes, motivates us to build on this strength.
  • Need for optimization in product transparency
    We see the increasing demands of the Economy for the Common Good as an incentive to continuously rethink and further improve our product transparency.
  • Improvement in the negative aspect “Guidance on waste”
    In the area of “Guidance on waste / tolerance of unecological behavior”, we were able to improve our rating from -10 to -5. This is significant progress and shows that our efforts to minimize environmental impact and promote sustainable practices are bearing fruit. For example, we have introduced internal training and workshops to raise awareness of environmental responsibility.

How we shape a sustainable future

We have systematically integrated our sustainability goals into our corporate strategy and firmly anchored them in our daily activities. Innovation is our driving force in developing responsible and sustainable solutions for the long term.

 

  • Clarity through CO₂ tracking
    We closely monitor our CO₂ emissions and financial flows within the company in order to take targeted measures to reduce our ecological footprint. This transparency helps us to constantly improve our actions.

 

  • Green IT and Green Consulting
    Sustainable software development is important to us. We develop software in such a way that it consumes as little energy as possible and conserves resources. We also advise other companies as part of our green consulting services in order to create more environmentally friendly solutions together.

 

  • Innovation with responsibility
    When developing new ideas, we always examine how they can serve our sustainability goals. In this way, we ensure that our innovations are not only technically advanced, but also socially and ecologically sensible.

 

  • Partnerships for greater sustainability
    Together with partners who share our values, we develop solutions to promote sustainable business practices.
We particularly liked the fact that the report preparation was carried out by a team that is well represented by the different areas of the company. The data collection for the preparation of the report is exemplarily organized, structured and accessible to all employees. – Ulrike Amann und Jörn Wiedemann, Auditors ECG
