Global Compact

Report on progress in applying the principles of the Global Compact

Since 2004, the Bosch Group has belonged to the United Nations Global Compact. We support the ten principles of the Global Compact and, in compliance with the Bosch values, use the international network in order to set higher standards in human and workers’ rights, as well as in environmental protection and the fight against corruption.

The following table provides a survey of the measures and management systems Bosch uses to apply the ten principles of the Global Compact, as well as of the results we were able to achieve in the reporting period. In 2007, we focused on expanding our business areas and research in the area of products that protect the environment and conserve resources, as well as on extending our compliance System.
