isi stands for a culture of openness, diversity, and democratic values. For this reason, “People” comes first in our company purpose “People. Planet. Pleasure.” Our initial focus is primarily on our corporate culture. We have committed ourselves to the “Charta der Vielfalt” (Diversity Charter) and always strive to create a friendly and respectful environment. Through regular surveys on employee satisfaction, we analyze the current status and develop measures for areas where there is potential for improvement.

For Social, we have defined six key topics, for each of which we collect data, set targets, and define actions. The Social Score indicates the extent to which we have achieved our annual social targets across all material topics. The topics are weighted differently.

We have developed compliance guidelines and business processes that are all based on our “isi Code of Conduct”. The Code of Conduct is binding and mandatory for all employees and board members. We are committed to adhering to fundamental legal standards, e.g. the prevention of corruption, child labor, and discrimination. Furthermore, we are aware that through our actions, we bear a social responsibility as part of sustainable business practices.

In addition to ethics and compliance, data protection and data security shape our daily activities.

For governance, we have defined two material topics for which we collect data, set goals, and define measures. The Governance Score indicates the extent to which we have achieved our annual governance objectives overall in both material topics. The topics are weighted differently.

A profitable business is not only a necessity for us, but also a responsibility to our stakeholders, employees, and their families. By paying taxes, we also make an important contribution to the welfare state and the quality of life in the Göttingen region and at our other locations. We rely on transparency and integrity in our financial processes to build trust and establish long-term relationships.
