Responsibility

Deutsche Post DHL takes its responsibility to society, to the communities in which we operate, to our employees and to the environment seriously. Deutsche Post DHL aims to advance and promote sustainable development, taking into account our specific business activities, our competencies and the challenges our company faces.

We are committed to minimizing the impact of our business on the environment. Our core businesses, mail and logistics, result in emissions of carbon dioxide (CO₂), making climate protection the primary focus of our efforts. Our environmental protection program, GoGreen, also sets the stage for our environmental management system, covering the local management of aspects such as pollution, waste, noise and the use of natural resources.

We believe we can become the Employer of Choice in our industry through three key measures: Offering current and potential employees a diverse range of opportunities to develop professionally and personally (“Growth”); empowering our employees to contribute their ideas and competencies and influence the success of the company (“Impact”); and encouraging our employees to be a part of an organization that makes a contribution to society as well as to the postal and logistics industries (“Pride”). These three measures represent our Employer Value Proposition (EVP).

As part of our corporate Strategy 2015, we aim to make a positive contribution to society since sustainable and credible social engagement will support the long-term success of our company. We focus on two strategic areas of involvement, GoHelp (disaster management) and GoTeach (education), to live our corporate responsibility. In addition, our employees’ knowledge, talents and passion bring many local community projects to life.
