Azelis Launches Company-Wide Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Program

Azelis is launching its CSR programme following two years of research, preparation, planning and the process of defining and implementing key performance indicators and their targets, as a result of efforts demonstrated across its entire supply chain and other matters. In line with the United Nations Global Compact's Corporate Responsibility Project, Azelis undertakes responsibility on Human Rights, Labour, Environment and Anti-Corruption issues. In order to ensure continuity of its progress in all these areas, Azelis has established a system to measure performance and develop action plans. As of 2019, Azelis commits to reporting on the progress it demonstrates in this field and providing annual reports on this matter. Azelis believes that CSR concerns all people, including employees, customers, managers and officials such as governments and local administrations. Since Azelis occupies a strategic position at the centre of the equation and is capable of influencing everyone's behaviour, the company holds the view that what matters when it comes to social, ethical and environmental choices, human rights and laws is taking responsibility and demonstrating a respectful stance. Azelis CEO Dr. Hans Joachim Mueller: "This project expresses a position that lies exactly at the centre of Azelis's value system: being respectful in everything we do, every day. We believe this is the only way to create a real and lasting impact. Of course, the greater the effort we make, the greater the impact we create. As Azelis, we have committed ourselves to maintaining our human, environmental and ethical values at the highest level by collaborating unhesitatingly with local communities, industry bodies, authorities and regulatory institutions. We can only reduce the impact of our operations on the environment by acting together, and wherever and whatever we do, we can only advance our social values by acting together."
