Precautionary principle or approach |
Although as a media group ProSiebenSat.1 does not work in a manufacturing industry that uses large quantities of resources and energy, we are nonetheless aware of our environmental responsibility as a commercial enterprise. Together with our employees and in dialog with our stakeholders, we can contribute to slowing down climate change and protecting the environment, for example by using natural resources sparingly and efficiently and by reducing our energy consumption and CO2 emissions. |

For all decisions that affect our employees, we work closely with the legal representation of the employees, which chiefly consists of the works council of ProSiebenSat.1 Media SE and ProSiebenSat.1 Produktion GmbH. Since 2015, there has also been a European Employee Board (EEB) at ProSiebenSat.1. The corresponding indicator is not yet reported at present, but will be included in data collection in the future. |

Diseases related to occupation |
|
The majority of employees at ProSiebenSat.1 do not work in a manufacturing environment. As a result, they are exposed to hazards in connection with their employment only to a limited extent. However, we are aware of other potential health risks that can be caused by work-related stress or by a lack of exercise or bad posture, for example. We therefore offer several training courses on personal management and time management to help our employees better organize their day-to-day work and their work environment. In addition, the Group provides tips on the right way to sit and offers sports activities to get its employees moving. |

Risks related to corruption |
In 2016, a total of 14 companies were subjected to a compliance review, which covered the areas of antitrust law, media law and data protection, as well as corruption risks. These companies included central units such as ProSiebenSat.1 TV Deutschland and SevenOne Media, which generate a large share of consolidated revenues, as well as maxdome and SevenVentures from the field of digital business. With regard to significant competition and corruption issues, our advertising-driven sales model is one key focus of our considerations due to its major economic importance for the ProSiebenSat.1 business model. This risk assessment still applies. |
