Environmental management, Social affairs and Corporate Governance

Environmental protection. Climate protection. Sustainability.

As part of our environmental management, we are committed to actively protecting the environment. As a service company, we also make our personal contribution to the environment and ensure that our business activities are sustainable.

For these reasons, we have decided to remain true to our motto of “Going the Extra Mile” when it comes to the environment and sustainability, and to introduce appropriate measures and framework conditions to protect the environment in the company.

Our ecological footprint

At RM Group, we take our responsibility towards the environment seriously. We are proud to report that our company already has a comparatively low level of CO2 emissions compared to others. Nonetheless, we recognize that there is still room for improvement, thats why we have taken a step towards sustainability by financially offsetting our CO2 emissions through myclimate for 2022, especially those of our flights and we also received a certificate for it.

In the future, we aim to reduce our ecological footprint even further and keep air travel to a minimum. Our target is to compensate 100% of all our travel emissions by 2024, and we believe that it is essential to take action now to contribute to a greener future.

Thank you for joining us on this journey towards a more sustainable tomorrow.

Sustainability rating

We are very proud to have been awarded with EcoVadis Gold status for a third consecutive year, which means that we are one of the best companies to meet the criteria of this certification in all the required points. The EcoVadis rating covers a wide range of non-financial management systems, including environmental impact, labor and human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement. Each company is rated on the essential aspects relevant to its size, location and industry.

Sensitisation of employees.

One of our goals is to make everyone aware of environmental problems and issues. We should not only adhere to guidelines within the company and during working hours, but also act responsibly towards the environment outside the company and in our free time. We therefore want to promote a sense of responsibility for the environment among all employees at all levels.

Sensible use of limited resources.

Our goal is also to minimize consumption, use limited resources sensibly and use renewable energies. We are committed to the careful and economical use of all resources, from procurement to orderly disposal. We therefore strive to minimize waste and ensure safe disposal. To this end, we have set up various collection points and when purchasing our office supplies, we rely on environmentally friendly products.

Renewable energies and minimal consumption.

Within the framework of economic efficiency and competitiveness, we reduce the environmental impact and energy consumption in our company by using environmentally friendly and advanced technologies. Also, wherever possible, our processes are digitized or even automated.

In our choice of electricity production, we therefore rely on renewable energies such as water or wind with the “naturemade star” certified product “ewz.ökopower” and use electronic equipment of energy efficiency class A or higher in our office.

Changes to the policy.

Our environmental policy may be updated at any time. We therefore recommend that you review it regularly.
