Sustainability Governance

Governance

Our responsibility to customers, workers, providers of capital and society is codified. In our Code of Conduct we have defined how we assume this responsibility and which policies are binding. Equal opportunities and non-discrimination form the framework for fair dealings, free of prejudice. PERI promotes diversity and tolerance in order to boost productivity, creativity and efficiency. 

We put the PERI values of entrepreneurship, dependability, openness and passion into practice on a daily basis. They form the basis for a culture of honesty and decency that has prevailed at PERI for decades.

Business Conduct and Ethics

The principles of business ethics are formulated in the PERI Group Code of Conduct. The Code of Conduct stipulates that the PERI Group complies worldwide with applicable legislation, respects fundamental human rights and acts with integrity towards its customers, suppliers, public authorities and other business partners. 

An additional Supplier Code of Conduct also sets out the binding expectations that apply to the PERI Group’s business partners. It requires them to refrain from corruption and bribery, prevent money laundering and the financing of terrorism, comply with export controls and sanctions and respect fair competition. Possible violations can be reported to the appointed compliance units. The company will take appropriate action in response to confirmed violations according to their degree of severity. These range from remedial and preventive action all the way to terminating the business relationship as a last resort. By doing this, the company translates its business ethics principles into clear, binding requirements and effective sanction mechanisms for employees and suppliers.
