What makes us different
Our compliance guideline
GRILLO-Werke AG and its subsidiaries are committed to lawful conduct, fair competition and high ethical standards. We have drawn up a guideline on lawful conduct for our employees worldwide, which focuses on avoiding violations of antitrust law, corruption and conflicts of interest. Managers and employees in the operational area receive regular training.
In addition, we take our responsibility in the supply chain seriously and have introduced a code of conduct for suppliers. This codifies our expectations of business partners from whom we procure goods or services. All our suppliers and business partners undertake to comply with this code, which makes a significant contribution to sustainable action in the supply chain.
Further details can be found in the GRILLO Group’s policy on lawful conduct.
Our declaration of principles for human rights
As an international company, GRILLO and its affiliated companies are committed to upholding human rights due diligence, strengthening human rights and providing remedies for those affected in the event of identified human rights violations. To reaffirm our commitment to respecting and promoting human rights, the GRILLO Board of Directors has adopted a Human Rights Policy Statement.
Our commitment
The commitment of GRILLO-Werke AG goes far beyond production. We see it as our responsibility to stand up for our employees as well as for society.
We regularly organise events for our employees and promote their health through vitality and health days. At the same time, we invest in their training and further education to constantly expand their professional skills.
Furthermore, our commitment does not end at the gates of our production sites. We actively engage with the wider community, run fundraising events and participate in educational initiatives.
Commitment is not just a buzzword for GRILLO, but a fundamental part of our corporate philosophy.
