Society
Our employees and partners are key to our long-term success as a business. Their rights, health and safety are of high priority for us. Nonetheless, ams OSRAM sees itself also as being part of society, which means that our responsibility extends beyond the confines of the Company.
Human Rights and Fair Working Conditions
As a globally active company, the question of compliance with human rights plays a central role in our cooperation with business partners and suppliers as well as in the working conditions of our employees. We fully support the UN Human Rights Charter and actively accept our responsibility by continuously integrating the universality of human rights into our policies, systems and processes.
