In February 2023, HEIDELBERG achieved an important milestone in the expansion of its sustainability activities with its decision to be participant of the UN Global Compact, the world’s largest and most important initiative for responsible and sustainable corporate management. The Company gears its strategy and operating activities toward ten universal principles in the core areas of human rights, work, environmental protection and anticorruption. This forms the basis for realizing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). As part of its annual Communication on Progress (CoP), the Company reports on the implementation of the ten principles and its activities in the core areas. Once published, the CoP report is available to view on the UN Global Compact website.
Even before it joined the UN Global Compact, HEIDELBERG evaluated the SDGs with a view to determining the goals to which it can actively contribute. We identified eight of the 17 SDGs and are already making an active contribution to their achievement.
