Sustainability at RUECKERCONSULT
As a company, we are firmly committed to interacting responsibly with our natural and social environments. As employer, we live up to our duty of care and create an inspiring, team-oriented and a workplace climate that aims for an optimal work-life balance.
Environment
We consider it our duty to use our structuring options to keep the environmental consequences of our activities to a minimum.
We constantly work on economically sensible solutions in order to lower the energy and water consumption, and to reduce carbon emissions.
Actively comparing notes with our stakeholders, especially with clients, co-workers and service providers, helps us to identify shared interests and to efficiently minimise the adverse consequences of our actions, for instance by reducing the use of paper and the frequency of business travel.
We strive to avoid emissions in an effort to reduce our ecological footprint along the entire value chain.
Social
We make every effort to create an attractive and safe work environment in order to tie our employees to the company long-term.
We are committed to non-discriminatory coexistence and diversity.
We offer our staff a positive environment to continue their personal and professional development and training.
We engage our stakeholders in open communication while also striving to communicate transparently.
We actively raise our employees’ awareness for environmental and sustainability issues.
Governance
We continuously develop and expand our collection, analysis and processing of non-financial metrics.
We strictly oppose corruption and bribery, and will sanction any kind of misconduct with consequences under labour-law and criminal-law.
We ensure compliance with international human rights standards by adhering to principles such as non-discrimination and accountability for our actions.
Our remuneration guidelines are meant to attract the best talents for long-term stints and to help improve staff performance without taking disproportionate risks for our clients and for our company.
Sustainability is an integral part of our workday reality.
