everyone is treated equally irrespective of their gender, origin, age, religion, sexual orientation or ideology. Diversity and fairness are central components of our corporate culture. By conducting targeted training courses and measures to raise awareness, we reinforce the awareness of equal treat- ment throughout the company. In this way, we not only create transparency and confidence in our actions, but also prevent discrimination and unfair treatment effectively. Early identification of discrimination – resulting for example from unequal involvement or a lack of support in day-to-day work – allows us to take targeted countermeasures. Our goal is to offer all our employees equal opportunities to participate and develop. Equal treatment not only protects individuals or groups, it also strengthens how we interact with each other, improves the atmosphere at work and makes a direct contribution to the motivation and satisfaction of all employees.
