BSCI
BSCI is a platform for improving social standards in a global value creation chain. The organisation, which is headquartered in Brussels, supports commercial businesses in adopting or referencing a code of conduct as well as a systematic monitoring and qualification system. The BSCI approach consists of compliance with the code, the involvement and protection of employees, supply chain management and cascade effects as well as a grievance mechanism.
As a certified company we undertake to inform employees of their rights, comply with the BSCI principles and influence other business partners and also provide a system for complaints and suggestions.
Social engagement
Companies are part of society and should therefore demonstrate responsibility for it. We contribute to a more just and equitable society by implementing diverse initiatives for our employees and by adhering to important international guidelines.
Social responsibility
For many years we have been subcontracting work to the disabled people’s workshops at the Antonius-Haus. There people with disabilities help us to complete finishing orders and thus to deliver the right products to our customers at the right time.
Donations
We donate to good causes! During the Christmas season, we run our fundraising campaign for Aktion Lichtblicke e.V. Amounts in the four-digit range are regularly collected here.
In the ‘ATAIR stays fit’ challenge, 50 cents are donated to two associations for every kilometre run/walked by all employees participating in the campaign. With a pool of organisations to choose from, our employees vote for the associations that they wish to support. This year, the ‘Herzenswünsche’ (Heart’s Desires) campaign took first place, receiving 60% of the euros earned/hiked, with 40% going to the runner-up, the Steinfurter Tafel (Steinfurt Food Bank).
Sponsoring
We sponsor regional sports clubs to promote the link between sport and young people.
Human rights
People are at the forefront of everything we do. To protect them and prevent human rights violations in global supply and value chains, we are committed to respecting the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. You can find our Declaration of Principles on Human Rights here.
Taster days
We frequently offer schoolchildren the opportunity to experience working life at ATAIR. This enables them to make contacts within the company, for example for internships, at an early stage.
Training places
We provide training! ATAIR has been a recognised training company for many years.
Diversity
Diversity is essential to creating a vibrant work environment, especially when it comes to employee commitment. Diversity in the workplace fosters creativity and innovation because each team member brings different backgrounds, perspectives and experience to the table. These unique perspectives have a major impact on our company and our workforce. The interplay of different cultures, genders and generations is part of everyday life at our production facilities. We consciously rely on the diversity of our team because their wealth of experience, perspectives and skills forms the basis of our success.
Employee concerns
We take the concerns and needs of our employees very seriously. Worker complaints can be submitted anonymously to the dedicated email address csr@atair.de – for example to report violations of our Social Code of Conduct (SCoC).
E-Bikes
To ensure that our employees remain mobile and healthy, they all have the option to lease up to two e-bikes, including for private use.
Training courses / seminars
Training courses and seminars are a firm part of our HR policy. All employees have the opportunity both to consolidate existing knowledge and learn new things. At their annual feedback meetings, employees discuss which potential courses or seminars may be of interest.
