MOVING FORWARD WITH HAND AND HEART

We see ourself as a company group characterised by values that are shared throughout all our national and international companies and that are embraced in practice on a common basis.

What ever we do, we always keep our company values in mind. They are an essential orientation for our daily work and how we deal with our employees, colleagues, customers, suppliers and business partners.

Our shared community values are as follows:

/ Respect

We treat each other with respect and appreciation. We are open and honest. We listen and let others finish speaking. We give each other feedback and are open to the opinions of others.

We accept and respect cultural differences and diversity and see them as an opportunity for the positive development of our corporate culture. We do not tolerate our values being disregarded.

We communicate proactively, authentically, promptly and objectively, taking into account the personality and needs of our conversation partners. We actively work to build and maintain our relationships with colleagues and business partners.

/ Trust and Personal Responsibility

Mutual trust is the basis of successful cooperation. We trust in the personality, competence and potential of our employees and colleagues and we are prepared to assign and assume responsibility.

Our philosophy is to act as a role model. We set an example of the individual responsibility that we expect from our employees and colleagues. We reflect on our behaviour, develop our social and professional
skills on an ongoing basis and face up to change in an open-minded and flexible manner. We share our knowledge and offer support where it is needed.

We seek to continuously improve and develop. For this reason, we create space for improvement suggestions, new ideas and innovations.

We aspire to avoid mistakes. When mistakes occur, we deal with them in a trusting, open and constructive manner and we consider mistakes as an opportunity to learn. We focus on solutions and lasting learning
effects.

/ Reliability

We do what we say we will do. We make realistic and true statements. We stand by our word and keep our promises. This applies both internally and externally. We can rely on each other. Our business partners can rely on us.

If, in individual cases, promises cannot be kept or implemented, we actively provide information about the reasons and offer alternatives and solutions at an early stage.
