Our company has a moral responsibility to respect and uphold human rights in every situation, regardless of the context in which it operates. Respect for human rights is an indispensable priority.

It is in the interest of our company to take into account the needs and concerns of all stakeholders (e.g. local residents, employees, suppliers, customers) in all actions. This demands a high level of respect and understanding for the different perspectives and requirements of the respective stakeholders.

All actions within our company shall always be in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. This results not only in a legally sound way of working, but also in a high degree of responsibility towards all stakeholders.

In particular, companies which, like Zehnder Pumpen, are active across borders should be committed to globally applicable standards of conduct. For example, the "UN Conventions on Human Rights" and the guidelines issued by organisations such as the ILO must be observed.

We have a responsibility towards the environment and society, and our actions can have far-reaching effects. For this reason, it is of great importance to be transparent and honest in our accountability. This is how we ensure that decisions are in line with the needs and requirements of society and the environment.

It is important that we operate as a transparent company and disclose our actions and decisions in an appropriate manner. This is an indispensable aspect that strengthens trust in the company and increases our credibility.

Mindfulness and empathy for our fellow human beings, animals and nature is of utmost importance. It is important that we care for them and stand up for their well-being. The protection and preservation of our environment is a responsibility that we should all share.
