Compliance Commitment

The Executive Board of thyssenkrupp AG has issued a clear Compliance Commitment*:

As an international industrial and technology group with over 200 years of history, thyssenkrupp bears a social responsibility. Our sustainable economic success is based on innovative strength, technological expertise, quality, and customer focus. Our responsible conduct is defined by the strict adherence to all applicable rules and laws. Compliance is therefore given the highest priority.

With our Compliance program, thyssenkrupp has undertaken extensive measures to ensure that legal requirements in the areas of anticorruption, antitrust law, money laundering prevention, data compliance, and trade compliance, as well as the Group regulations based on these, are observed. Violations are not tolerated (zero tolerance).

To us, Compliance is a question of mindset: values such as reliability, honesty, credibility, and integrity permeate our corporate DNA. We would rather purposely forego a business opportunity or fail to reach our internal goals than act against the law.

The active participation of every executive and employee in implementing thyssenkrupp’s Compliance Program in their respective area of responsibility is essential to further strengthen the trust of customers, suppliers, shareholders, and society in thyssenkrupp.
