Social responsibility is a fundamental part of sustainable development and our corporate culture. We focus on social aspects that influence the wellbeing of people and communities. We strengthen social justice, equal opportunities and the protection of human rights, both in our own business operations and as part of our value chain.

ELTEN is committed to providing all employees with a safe and healthy working environment in which they can fully develop their skills and potential. We believe that promoting diversity, inclusion and equality is not only ethically right but also helps to create a positive working environment in which all employees feel welcome and valued.

For more than 110 years, we have been working together in a family atmosphere. Equal opportunities, respectful interaction and teamwork are important to us and are fundamental aspects of our cooperation, regardless of religion, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation or other personal characteristics. Both within the team and when dealing with our suppliers and other stakeholders. Our CSR Policy is not just words on paper but is practised in every facet of our company.

Occupational health and safety

The commitment to reduce and eliminate any negative practices in relation to working conditions is an essential part of our social obligation. We use state-of-the-art technologies and processes to continuously improve working conditions.

Ergonomic design, regular training and open communication promote an awareness of occupational health and safety. We offer comprehensive health services and carry out regular risk assessments to identify, analyse, evaluate and minimise potential risks to the health and safety of our employees.

Training and further education

We offer apprenticeships in several professions in order to promote young talent and train them as skilled workers. Through internal and external qualification measures, we enable our specialist staff to continuously expand their knowledge and skills. Our training and further education programmes are tailored to the individual needs of our employees and aim to develop both professional and personal skills.

Work-life balance

As a family-owned business, work-life balance is a top priority for us. Depending on the area of responsibility, we offer flexible working hours and work-from-home options to enable our team to fit work around other duties. We also support our employees with childcare subsidies to make it easier to combine family and career.

Remuneration and additional benefits

Performance-related and fair remuneration, employee share schemes, company pension scheme, voluntary and above-tariff benefits – as an employer, ELTEN offers its team a large package of additional benefits. Our employees also receive a shopping card as an extra benefit. In addition, we regularly raffle off tickets to sporting events for the teams we sponsor to allow our employees to enjoy unforgettable experiences.

Long-term, trusting partnerships are important to us — both with our suppliers and our business partners. This is why we rely on close and open dialogue, which also includes personal meetings in the sourcing countries.

For us, this transparency is the foundation for strengthening better working conditions in the value chain. This enables us to protect labour rights, identify risks and grievances at an early stage and take appropriate measures.

Code of conduct

In our Code of Conduct, we commit to respecting and protecting labour and human rights. These cover a variety of topics, including prohibiting child labour, forced labour, discrimination, unfair working conditions, and guaranteeing fair remuneration. Our suppliers must acknowledge our Code of Conduct in full.

amfori BSCI

As a member of the amfori Business Social Compliance Initiative (BSCI), we are committed to improving working conditions and protecting human rights in global supply chains. To achieve this goal, we also carry out regular on-site CSR audits of our suppliers.

These social audits are risk analysis tools that we use to verify whether ELTEN GmbH’s Code of Conduct – based on the criteria of the amfori BSCI Code of Conduct – is being adhered to.
