one-group policy

Employment Policy and ethical Behaviour
Businesses should support and respect the protection of internationally proclaimed human rights within their sphere of influence and make sure they are not complicit in human rights abuses. In our business we are privileged to highly personal and confidential information and seek the highest ethical standards from our employees.

one-group believes in the philosophy of "equal opportunity". New hires shall be selected based on their technical and social skills only and all employees are frequently encouraged to undergo internal or external training and courses. Moreover, one-group trusts that motivation does not uniquely come from monetary values but much rather also from immaterial values such as trust, empowerment and leadership, which are core ideals within the group.

Environmental Policy
Business should support a precautionary approach to environmental challenges, undertake initiatives to promote greater environmental responsibility and encourage the development and diffusion of environmentally friendly technologies.

Office - Wherever possible office equipments and materials are returned for recycling. Reasonable energy consumption is valued.

Packaging material - All cartons and paper-based materials used are sent for recycling and only cartons made of recycled paper should be purchased. The partners should use only plastic-based materials like bubble-wrap produced of innoxiously destructible materials like PET. Moreover, the companies should request an environmental certificate from every supplier of packaging material.

Vehicles - the partners are encouraged to purchase vehicles with the environmentally friendliest engines available and to use low sulphur diesel and lead free petrol as well as catalytic recyclers. It is stimulated to co-load or back-load as much cargo as possible on trucks with empty space via the one-coload tool.

Health and Safety Policy
one-group acknowledges that even in a unified Europe legislation on health and safety issues at work varies considerably. Therefore emphasis is given to the compliance with local rules and legislation, based on every one-group partner is required to have its own health and safety policy. This policy must be part of the FAIM-manual and should be periodically audited by the one-office.
