Gender: Women. Men. Everyone. 

We support all employees in balancing their professional and personal lives. As a company with a predominantly female workforce, we also actively encourage the inclusion of men in social professions.

Ethnic Background and Nationality: Intercultural. Fair. Open. 

We treat one another with openness and respect—regardless of our background or immigration history. In our workplace, we use German and English, embracing all the different accents and dialects. 

Religion and Worldview: Interfaith. Considerate. Attentive.

We respect religious beliefs and, to the best of our ability, provide opportunities for religious practice, such as places to pray, religious meal options, or consideration for religious holidays. There is no place for proselytizing here.

Age & Generations: Strengths-based. Thoughtful. Realistic.

We assign people based on their skills and tailor tasks to different stages of life. Through targeted generational management, we support personal and professional development—from the start of a career through to employment in retirement.

Sexual orientation: Fearless. Open. Natural.

We foster an environment where everyone can live openly and without fear, regardless of their sexual orientation. This openness is supported by both our employees and our customers across all areas of the company. 

Disability: Realizing potential. Safety. Team.

We empower people with disabilities to contribute their skills and develop them further. When necessary, we work together to find suitable positions, work schedules, or process adjustments so that employees can remain productive and work safely over the long term.

"Our vision of diversity reflects the essence of the "Diversity Charter" : a culture of openness and inclusion for people of all genders, ethnicities, religions, sexual orientations, age groups, and with different abilities.

"This diversity is not only a source of innovation and creative solutions, but also a reflection of our firm belief that different perspectives form the foundation for a successful future."
