Our Responsibility
Our Commitment

As a member of the United Nations Global Compact, we have committed ourselves to reporting annually on the progress of our initiatives. This helps facilitate a regular interchange of information with those around us and documents our projects aimed at putting the ten principles of the Global Compact into practice and firmly implementing them within our company.

The Progress Report 2010 provides you with an overview of our worldwide commitment and involvement in the fields of human rights and labor standards, environmental protection, the fight against corruption, and society. tesa has traditionally taken a sustainable approach that ensures both continuity and a continuous improvement process. With more than 50 affiliates worldwide, there are a large number of projects involved. For that reason, this report is limited to a representative selection of current initiatives.

In line with the modern communication channels used by our stakeholders, we began publishing our Progress Report in an online version in 2008. In addition to the advantage of better accessibility, an online report also offers opportunities for regular updates. You can also visit the “Responsibility” section of our website for comprehensive information on the topics of the environment, quality, employees, and social matters: www.tesa.com/company/responsibility.
