Integrated Management System
Our global Integrated Management System covers the requirements of Quality Management according to ISO 9001, ISO 14001 for Environmental Management Systems and OHSAS 18001 for Health, Safety & Environmental Protection (HSE) as well as corporation standards for process management. We receive an external certification of the Integrated Mangement System for each major manufacturing and engineering location in the world.
Organization and responsibility
We are compliant with global legal guidelines referring to the organization and nomination of responsible individuals for Health, Safety & Environmental Protection (HSE). We consider high professional competence and reliability of our responsible heads and experts a major prerequisite to successfully fulfill their function. Independent internal units and external audits monitor compliance with legal guidelines. Each relevant location and unit of organization regularly reports on the subject areas, including industrial environmental protection and product stewardship, technical safety as well as occupational health and safety. The respective data are specifically evaluated for programs and measures.
