Our Responsibility

We are aware of our corporate and social responsibility and perceive this as a comprehensive challenge. For ProSiebenSat.1, success not only means sustainably increasing our financial results and growing dynamically. It also means consistently enhancing the Group’s non-financial performance.

Furthermore, we believe that enterprises that identify opportunities and risks in the field of sustainability at an early stage can also better prevail in competitive markets. After all, the strength of a business strategy cannot just be measured financially; non-financial aspects are also relevant for lasting success. In this context, ProSiebenSat.1 defines sustainable entrepreneurial activity as a comprehensive approach for ensuring both the economic performance and the environmental and social performance of our Group.

Employees and Diversity

Our employees are the basis of our economic success. ProSiebenSat.1 thrives on the creativity and the fast pace of innovation of its employees. Digitalization is changing the media sector faster than other industries. For this reason, our corporate culture is characterized by constant willingness to change.

Compliance

ProSiebenSat.1 believes that sustained economic success in a competitive environment can only be achieved by ensuring that all action taken is in compliance with the applicable laws. Therefore, preventing corruption and violations of antitrust law is highly relevant to business and represents an important success factor for strengthening our market position and achieving our corporate goals.

Environment and Climate Protection

As a media company, ProSiebenSat.1 does not count among the energy-intensive manufacturing industries that use a lot of resources. Nonetheless, we are aware of our ecological responsibility that we face as a business corporation. Together with our employees and in dialog with our stakeholders, we can help to slow down climate change and conserve our environment by taking care in the way we use resources and, for example, reducing our energy consumption and CO2 emissions through targeted measures.
