Sustainability

We focus on renewable energies – locally and for the future.

At almost all German locations, we purchase certified green electricity and thus actively reduce our CO₂ emissions. We specifically sensitize our employees worldwide to climate-friendly behavior in their everyday work.

We make mobility climate-friendly and efficient. Our mobility concept specifically promotes the use of public transport for local and long-distance travel. With our company bike leasing program, we also offer our employees an emission-free way to get to work.

Our travel policy also sets clear standards. Business trips are carried out in a climate-conscious manner, with the aim of significantly reducing CO₂ emissions. We are electrifying our company fleet step by step. And at the same time, we are expanding the charging infrastructure – for a measurable relief of the environment.

Digital tools connect us worldwide, efficiently and in a way that saves resources. Less paper, less travel – more impact. And yet: The personal exchange with our clients remains indispensable for us.

Modern technology forms the basis for sustainable action. But what is decisive is how we use it in everyday life – from the light switch to e-mail. Every step counts. That is why we regularly strengthen our teams’ awareness of sustainable action in both small and large matters.

The circular economy is also a lived practice for us. Smartphones, laptops and printers are not disposed of, but returned via leasing contracts or passed on to partners. For longer use and less waste.

Our employees shape our success. That is why we invest specifically in their development. We create an inspiring work environment, offer versatile training and open up clear perspectives for individual careers.

As a family-friendly company, we promote flexible working time models and mobile working. We take care of physical and mental well-being. With sports offers, ergonomic workplaces, digital support platforms and an internal point of contact. Whether for health concerns, personal worries or team conflicts: We are there. Because a healthy balance strengthens everyone: employees and companies alike.

We bring together people with different experiences, perspectives and personalities. With us, what makes people who they are counts – not where they come from. We create an inclusive environment, free of prejudice and barriers. With our Diversity network, we promote participation at all levels. It connects, strengthens perspectives and promotes joint learning.

We act when young people get into need through no fault of their own. Through our Rödl employee foundation for children’s aid, we provide quick and direct support – with the aim of giving confidence and opening up new paths.

Whether emergency aid in Asia, environmental initiatives in Europe or social projects in Latin America – our teams are involved worldwide. Together we create an impact that extends beyond borders. We support national and international initiatives in the fields of education, culture and sport. We act concretely – with projects that remain.

Our Global Code of Conduct is not a set of rules on paper, but a guide to excellence and lived responsibility.

We take our human rights and environmental due diligence obligations very seriously – with us, locally and along our entire supply chain. Our aim: to identify risks early on, prevent violations and open up opportunities for sustainable growth. We protect human rights, preserve the environment and shape the future responsibly.

We actively involve stakeholders, provide consistent support and pave the way for honest corporate governance. For information, we provide an anonymous reporting channel for human rights and environmental protection.
