Occupational health & safety

We care for our workforce and want every employee to return home safely and in good health at the end of their working day. We seek to provide a workplace environment that does not affect the health or otherwise compromise the well being of our employees.

We strive to reach our “Vision Zero” – zero injuries, zero process incidents and zero environmental incidents.

Diversity

We are an equal opportunity employer. We act with social and environmental responsibility and according to the highest professional and ethical standards.

In order to broaden the diversity of our Swiss workforce, we joined the Advance Women network of approximately 60 companies in 2017, a group that aims to actively increase the share of women in leading positions in Swiss firms.
