Governance & Processes

Governance & Processes

We aim to strengthen ethical business conduct along the value chain together with our partners.

This is also reflected in BSH’s memberships in initiatives, such as the UN Global Compact, and in the commitments, we have made as a result.

BSH joined the UN Global Compact initiative in 2004. Its Ten Principles are aimed in particular at the protection of international human rights, the abolishment of forced and child labor, eliminating discrimination, and environmental responsibility. To manage the complex and heterogeneous supply relationships in around 80 countries with about 40,000 suppliers, BSH has been requiring its suppliers to implement the Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact since 2006.

These principles are of essential importance for BSH. Therefore, they form a permanent part of the code of conduct that applies throughout the company and is mandatory for all employees worldwide – the BSH Business Conduct Guidelines. This code sets out binding rules for responsible business practices for all employees around the world. It applies internally and also in dealings with customers and business partners.
