Rosenbauer International : For the first time, Rosenbauer publishes Group-wide Sustainability Report

• Rosenbauer publishes non-financial performance indicators for the 2017 reporting year with regard to employees, the environment, and society
• Sustainability Report in accordance with GRI standards is compliant with NaDiVeg
• The focus is on the long-term perspective as a family-run company

The Rosenbauer Group publishes its first separate Sustainability Report with Group-wide performance indicators together with the Annual Report. Thus, more attention will be paid to the company's efforts regarding sustainability and give it a new standard. As a family-run company, Rosenbauer considers it its duty to tailor its actions on a long term basis and to the needs of customers, employees, partners, and investors. The report meets the requirements of the Austrian Sustainability and Diversity Improvement Act (NaDiVeg) and is prepared in accordance with the standards of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) 2016. Rosenbauer thus communicates key issues transparently to all stakeholders and invites them to engage in dialog.
