Work Health and Environment Protection

Together we take all necessary precautions for the effective protection against health hazards at the workplace and also for the protection of our guests moving on our premises as well as against environmental damage. At STILL we achieve this goal through an integrated occupational health and safety and environmental protection management (AGU), which we continuously improve.

 

It is therefore important to us as management that we permanently adhere to the rules of our environmental protection management in all areas of our organization.

 

Our environmental protection principles are the foundation for this. Their core forms a guiding principle from which we derive certain values and principles for occupational safety, health and environmental protection. Our guiding principle, values and principles provide us with a common orientation in the daily practice of occupational safety, health and environmental protection.

 

"The AGU principles of STILL are our lighthouse, which gives us the necessary orientation every day and in every working situation to steer our corporate course in harmony with important social goals and values."
