Since 2008, we have voluntarily participated in the United Nations Global Compact, an initiative established to encourage collaboration between companies and the United Nations. We have submitted our Communication on Progress (COP) every year since then, and these can be viewed on the UN Global Compact website. In addition, we have been publishing a comprehensive sustainability report since 2026.
Communication on Progress
Since 2008, we have been an active participant in the UN Global Compact and are committed to the ten principles relating to human rights, labour standards, environmental and climate protection, and the fight against corruption. Since then, we have set out in an annual Communication on Progress (COP) how we integrate these principles into our business strategy, corporate culture and day-to-day operations, and how we contribute to the United Nations’ goals.
Sustainability Report
We have also produced a comprehensive sustainability report for the 2025 financial year. The report is based on the guidelines of the ESRS (European Sustainability Reporting Standards).
Through this voluntary report, we have systematically documented, prioritised and communicated the key aspects and objectives of our extensive sustainability activities.
Our key topics are:
- Climate protection and energy
- Air pollutant emissions
- Resource use and the circular economy
- Employees at VS
- Customers and end consumers
- Corporate governance
