Focus areas - Our 5 Pillars
Safety
Health and safety for our employees, customers, and partners are our top priority and a prerequisite for our business. Therefore, we continuously work to create a genuine safety culture in everything we do – our products, our services, and our behaviors and attitudes. We implement a systematic safety strategy to achieve the goal of preventing any harm in the workplace.
Business
With sustainability as a central part of our business, we create competitiveness through our sustainability work. Through innovation, we can gain advantages in the market, strengthen our brand, retain and develop our employees, and attract the right talent for the future. We actively seek solutions that benefit both the planet and the business.
Planet
Our planet is facing serious threats, and there is no doubt that we are heading towards a global environmental crisis if we do not drastically reduce global warming. We are determined to mobilize our organization and do what we can. We take responsibility for a higher purpose.
People
Not utilizing people’s potential is wasteful and does not align with our definition of sustainable business. We aim to develop individuals and teams to reach their full potential by offering development opportunities and training. We strive to build inclusive teams where everyone is respected and heard. Our employees are our most valuable resource; they make all the difference.
Ethics
High ethical values are at the core of a sustainable business. We have zero tolerance for harassment, discrimination, bullying, and all forms of bribery and corruption. We ensure fair agreements with customers and suppliers, and ensure that our employees always receive fair wages.
Reducing our greenhouse gas emissions
We work towards transparent reporting of our greenhouse gas emissions in line with the guidelines from the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG), where we focus on identifying and addressing the major sources of emissions within our value chain. Through various initiatives, such as the installation of solar panels, transitioning to fossil-free vehicles, and increased recycling, we actively work to reduce our environmental impact.
Circularity
Product lifespan and waste management are essential components in our strategy for achieving a circular business model. Just as we strive to maximize the use of recycled materials in our products, responsible management of waste at the end of our products’ lifecycle is just as important.
Sustainability brochure
Our sustainability report covers all entities included in our consolidated financial statements. The report has been prepared in accordance with the core option of the Global Reporting Initiative Standards (GRI). Our sustainability brochure is an extract from that report and gives you a good overview of our sustainability work.
Diversity and inclusion
With the right mix of skills, experiences, and perspectives, we’re set to better develop the lift and elevator solutions of tomorrow. Diversity makes us strong, and inclusion makes us powerful.
Ethics and responsibility in our value chain
Cibes Lift Group relies on a global network of suppliers for components, services, and transportation. As we grow, the complexity of the supply chain increases, making it important to ensure human rights and environmental considerations at every stage.
