Commitment to sustainability goals
With its corporate strategy, K+S is clearly committed to sustainability. We have set ourselves ambitious targets in the three pillars of sustainability: Social Responsibility, Environment & Resources, and Governance. We regularly report on our material sustainability topics and the progress of our sustainability goals & KPIs in our Annual Report. We regularly evaluate our performance through external sustainability ratings and rankings.
Sustainability-related aspects in the corporate strategy
K+S considers the impacts of its business activities towards people, the environment, communities and the economy in the regions in which it operates. The corporate strategy takes into account long-term economic, environmental and social developments. The K+S sustainability program is an integral part of this.
The definition of concrete targets up to 2030 and the regular reporting of key performance indicators (KPIs) makes our progress measurable. The targets adopted by the Board of Executive Directors were developed by the specialist units and the Sustainability Department. Each member of the K+S Board of Executive Directors is also a personal sponsor of the goals and actively drives their implementation.
