Governance

Syndus Group’s CSR policy is defined by the criteria of the ESG model: Environmental, Social, and Governance. These three aspects are relevant to every part of our organisation. In doing so, we apply widely recognised criteria for measuring the extent of our commitment to corporate social responsibility (CSR).

Within Syndus Group, ‘Together’ and ‘Reliable’ are two essential core values. These values are closely linked to Governance – in other words, the responsible management of our organisation. We take responsibility not only within our own operations but also through collaboration with our surroundings. Transparency, integrity, and sustainability are central to this approach.

The points outlined below represent the key focus areas within Syndus Group in terms of Governance at present.

Sustainable Development Goals and Syndus Group

The United Nations has introduced 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as a guiding and ambitious framework for creating a more sustainable world by 2030. In applying the ESG framework, we consistently align our efforts with the Sustainable Development Goals that are most relevant to Syndus Group.

Legislation and Regulation

At Syndus Group, fair and open competition is of the utmost importance. We strictly adhere to all legal guidelines and refrain from any market agreements that could jeopardise these principles. Transparency and integrity form the foundation of our way of doing business.

In every business transaction, we comply with the applicable laws and regulations. This includes, among other things, the trade in so-called dual-use substances and adherence to sanction lists. By ensuring compliance, we uphold a responsible and ethical business policy.

We also expect our business partners to maintain the highest standards in ethical conduct. Compliance with local legislation and the avoidance of any form of corruption, bribery, or fraud are absolute prerequisites for collaboration.

Through this policy, we ensure that our operations are not only legally sound but also contribute to a fair and sustainable market.

Business Ethics

At Syndus Group, we place great importance on transparency, honesty, and conducting business with integrity. We believe in strong, trust-based partnerships and make business decisions based on objectivity and professionalism.

We expect our employees to act with care and awareness when giving or receiving gifts or other business courtesies. To ensure complete transparency, this is only permitted with prior approval from the management.

If a situation arises where there is uncertainty about the appropriate course of action, we encourage employees to discuss it with management. In this way, we work together to maintain an open, honest, and professional working environment.

Our CSR Policy

Environmental

Syndus Group is actively committed to minimising its impact on the environment and surrounding communities. We are fully aware of the potential environmental consequences of our activities and continuously strive for improvements that help to reduce this impact. We regard compliance with environmental laws and regulations as the minimum standard – one on which we build further to uphold and strengthen our environmental responsibility.

Environment

Social

At Syndus Group, respect for human rights and the promotion of fair and dignified working conditions are central to our way of working. We place great importance on complying with both international standards and national legislation. Because we believe in the value of making a positive contribution to society, we go beyond compliance – actively working to uphold and strengthen these principles throughout our organisation.

Social

‘Collaboration’ and ‘Reliability’ are two of the five core values that define the identity of Syndus Group. These principles form the foundation of our governance approach – ensuring the organisation is managed in a responsible and transparent manner. Together with our stakeholders, we take ownership of our role in society by operating with integrity and contributing to a more sustainable future.
