Safety

Our goal is to consistently prevent work-related accidents and illnesses in a safe working environment. We act in accordance with applicable legal requirements, strengthen our safety culture, and actively engage our employees. We continuously develop our safety management systems and make our progress transparent.

Health & Well-being

We take a holistic view of health as physical, mental, and social well-being. Our management of health and well-being goes beyond legal requirements and is prevention-focused. Our goal is to promote the health and resilience of our employees within a corporate culture of mutual care. We regularly review our progress and continuously refine our measures.

At Bertelsmann, the safety and health of our employees are our top priority. Providing a safe working environment and comprehensive health support is not an optional benefit, but a fundamental responsibility of effective leadership and responsible corporate governance.
