GRI content index

The Schaeffler Group’s sustainability reporting is conducted in accordance with the GRI standards of the Global Reporting Initiative according to the “core” option. The interactive index, which can be found online, shows the indicators that Schaeffler addresses in the report and leads the users to the report pages containing this information.

The Schaeffler Group is committed to the ten principles of the UN Global Compact in the areas of human rights, occupational standards, environmental protection, and anti-corruption measures. The GRI Content Index therefore also indicates which GRI indicators simultaneously cover one or more of the UN Global Compact principles. Reference will also be made to Schaeffler’s respective contribution to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
