“Evaluations by independent and globally acting rating agencies such as EcoVadis are highly relevant for our company, as they confirm the path we have taken with all the measures we have implemented so far and the goals we have set for ourselves. Together with our specialist departments, the Sustainability Team makes the best possible contribution to the Zumtobel Group's sustainable development. This not only benefits the environment, but also our customers and partners”, says Sebastian Gann, Sustainability Director at the Zumtobel Group.
Sustainable development
While the Zumtobel Group particularly distinguished itself in the area of sustainable procurement last year, this year an improvement of ten points was achieved in the area of labour and human rights: This was largely due to the numerous implemented measures regarding employee health in the past financial year as well as having obtained ISO 45001 certifications (management systems for occupational health and safety) for all European plants. With a total score of 78 points, the lighting group was able to maintain its solid rating foundation while at the same time further improving it.
