Cor­po­rate Social Respon­si­bil­i­ty (CSR) plays an impor­tant role for more and more com­pa­nies. CSR is char­ac­ter­ized by the inter­play of eco­log­i­cal, social and eth­i­cal aspects. Mean­while, a clear com­mit­ment in this area is a rel­e­vant fac­tor for new busi­ness rela­tion­ships. Thus, busi­ness part­ners must not only present their sus­tain­able actions with­in the frame­work of CSR, but also, for exam­ple, pay atten­tion to com­pli­ance with eth­i­cal stan­dards along their sup­ply chain, their social com­mit­ment in their region or the work­ing con­di­tions for their employees.

We at MAGNESIA are address­ing this chal­lenge. For already quite a while now, we have been work­ing in a resource-sav­ing man­ner through an almost paper-free admin­is­tra­tion, the use of green elec­tric­i­ty through­out the com­pa­ny and the changeover of the com­pa­ny fleet to e‑vehicles. Fur­ther­more, we sup­port our employ­ees in get­ting to work by bike (JobRad^®). And our busi­ness trips are large­ly CO² neu­tral thanks to the Green­perk com­pen­sa­tion ser­vice of our trav­el plat­form Trav­elperk. We are active­ly involved in the Rudolf & Renate Sei­del Foun­da­tion for the musi­cal pro­mo­tion of young peo­ple. And we keep in con­tact with local and nation­al char­i­ta­ble orga­ni­za­tions and col­lect dona­tions for them.
