Diversity Statement
IDEAS ARE BUILT ON DIVERSITY
Swietelsky AG recognises the ever-increasing diversity of the society in which we live and work. We build on the diversity of ideas and know that different perspectives can help us to master the challenges of a rapidly changing world.
The prerequisite for this is that our employees, regardless of their gender, religion, sexual orientation, age, ethnicity, or disability, are comprehensively supported and developed and are able to fully realise both their personal and professional potential.
We stand for a clear rejection of any form of discrimination and bullying and are committed to a culture of togetherness that is inclusive and appreciative of one other. We regard committed diversity management as a strategic instrument to increase the long-term efficiency of our construction activities.
We therefore encourage our employees to see diversity as an opportunity to gain a competitive edge, to cultivate an empathetic working climate and to create framework conditions that meet the goals of inclusion.
We see the advancement of women in construction-related work processes and management structures in particular, but also the tailored employment of older employees and the training of young people as urgent operational requirements and, not least, a significant social responsibility,
