Meeting our social responsibilities is not viewed as a separate business activity but is totally linked with our business success.
Historically, social responsibility has been measured as the contribution of a company towards employment opportunities or the economy. But we believe that today other factors assess the social performance of a company, such as our contribution to the society we uphold, the communities we serve and the environment in which we operate. Siemens pursues a strategy of sustainability.
The driving force behind this strategy is the firm belief that not
only governments and international organizations, but also
industrial companies with their power of innovation and investment
bear a special responsibility to ensure the future viability of
global development. Siemens engages in various corporate
responsibility and sustainable developments projects in Africa to
ensure the long-term well-being of the continent’s people.
