OUR GLOBAL COMMITMENTS
For us it is about understanding each other and moving beyond simple tolerance to embracing and celebrating the rich dimensions of diversity contained within each individual – from race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, age, physical abilities, religious beliefs, political beliefs, or other ideologies.
Charta der Vielfalt
Committed to an inclusive company culture, we have signed the Charta der Vielfalt (Diversity Charter) in 2008. This initiative promotes diversity in businesses and institutions and advocates for acknowledgment and appreciation of all employees.
UN Women's Empowerment Principles
The subject of diversity also encompasses equal opportunity between genders. This is why we have signed the UN Women's Empowerment Principles. The seven principles contribute to the empowerment of women in business.
Partnership for Global LGBTI Equality
We support the Partnership for Global LGBTI Equality (PGLE), a coalition of organizations committed to leveraging their individual and collective advocacy to accelerate LGBTI equality and inclusion globally, supported by the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights.
