Occupational Health and Safety

The number of work-related accidents was reduced again in the current reporting year. This brings SFS one step closer to its target of halving the number of occupational accidents by 2025 compared to the 2019 reference year. In order to take account of the dynamic growth of the company, target achievement is now also measured using the relative key figure "accidents per million hours worked", according to which occupational accidents were reduced by –12.8%. The corresponding data were collected for the first time in the reporting year and form the basis for the relative goal of halving the number of accidents by 2025.

Reducing emissions with “Lean & Green”

The “Environmental Roadmap 2020–2025” calls for a variety of different measures to help the SFS Group reach its CO2 reduction targets. One of those is optimizing its in-house performance in line with the “Lean & Green” program. Numerous measures from several divisions and countries were implemented over the past year that were designed not only to reduce energy consumption, cutting waste and emissions but also to use renewable energies and promote biodiversity.

Sustainability

The COVID-19 pandemic was still the dominating topic for the SFS Group in 2021. Despite this challenging environment, it nevertheless managed to maintain its focus on implementing the environmental roadmap presented last year. Important progress has been made towards achieving the ambitious targets such as reducing CO2 emissions by –11.9% and occupational accidents by –12.8%.
