GRI content index

The Schaeffler Group’s sustainability reporting is conducted in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards (Core option). The interactive index, which is available online, shows the indicators that the company addresses in the report and leads 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 the company’s respective contribution to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Responsible tax strategy

The Country-by-country reporting (CbCR) data as required by GRI 207-4 does not correspond to the CbCR data that the Schaeffler Group prepares in accordance with the structure defined by the BEPS ruling and the legal obligations and subsequently submits to the German Federal Central Tax Office. Consolidated data per country or tax jurisdiction is not available at the Schaeffler Group. The necessary IT resources to prepare the required data within the Schaeffler Group are currently tied up due to comprehensive system conversions. Furthermore, full reporting in accordance with GRI 207-4 requires the expansion of personnel capacities in various areas.
