Committed to Sustainability

A sustainable future is in everyone’s hands 

We have been shaping transformation since our foundation in 1866. We establish safe, secure frameworks for innovations. Starting right here in our own organisation. After all, we too are part of the transformation. We too play a role in shaping it. The responsible use of our natural resources, our collaboration-based approach and working methods, and our positive contribution to society come first in everything that we do. We naturally embrace sustainable practices as we actively promote progress every day. Find out here how we do this. 
 
Transparent and open communication are the backbone of sustainable action. In our 2023 Sustainability Report, we describe the ecological, economic, and social impacts of our business operations, focusing on TÜV SÜD’s key action areas. Prepared in accordance with the standards of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI 2021), the report documents how we fulfil our corporate responsibility and actively integrate the relevant topics into our business processes. The report complements our Annual Report and is updated annually. 

Our sustainability report was produced on the basis of the GRI Standards’ “Core” option, issued by the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). We have further commissioned regular assessments by NQC and by the independent CSR rating platform EcoVadis. In 2023, we have been awarded Platinum status.  This places TÜV SÜD in the top 1% of companies evaluated in our sector.
