Basis for success for a company moving forward

The design of living spaces poses a new challenge for us time and again. Mankind and the environment are as individual as our projects. The construction projects put into practice by us influence public life and affect millions of people. We take the heavy social and environmental responsibility associated with this very seriously.This is reflected in our Vision:

"HOCHTIEF is building the future - Along with our partners, we expand horizons, link people and organizations, create new ways to think and act, and continually enhance the values entrusted to our care."

In order to turn vision into reality, HOCHTIEF has set out its clear commitment to sustainable action in its Guiding Principles. The Vision and Guiding Principles are binding for all HOCHTIEF employees.


Occupations with a future

Continuing corporate success and above-average quality can be guaranteed only with particularly highly committed and enthusiastic employees. We are aware of this and act accordingly.

Every employee has the same opportunities. By creating a good working environment, we seek to motivate our staff to give their very best. This is essential to enable HOCHTIEF to set itself off from international competition by means of forward-looking ideas and a unique knowledge potential.
We foster our employees in all areas through ongoing professional training and financial incentives. We also transfer responsibility to them from an early stage, thereby creating challenging scope for decision- making. At the same time HOCHTIEF faces up to its social responsibility to help prepare young people for a successful future in the world of work. For years, the company has steadily increased the number of vocational training places it offers.
Creating and securing quality of life

HOCHTIEF considers it a challenge and an obligation to practice active environmental protection in all its national and international projects. The company constantly develops new services and products, aimed at lastingly protecting the environment and handling natural resources sparingly. One factor here is HOCHTIEF's firm commitment to regenerative energies, including geothermal energy. In this field, we have already completed many future-oriented projects and are working on others.

Our company will continue to give maximum priority to environmental protection in all its activities and projects. In this way we seek to ensure - and if possible improve - the quality of life. That is an ambitious goal, but we are determined to make a contribution through our sustainable work practices.



Preserving the cultural heritage

HOCHTIEF recognizes that being a corporate citizen means accepting its responsibilities towards society. We consider ecological and social commitment highly important.

Since we create living spaces, we are in constant contact with people of many different kinds - in urban and rural areas across the world.

Our commitment to society extends from sponsoring for the Bauhaus and modern architecture through to initiatives in training young people and adults in their local environment. The company and its employees help when disasters cause emergencies.
But our commitment goes beyond the world of today: We also seek to develop and implement solutions oriented to the future.
