The independent platform for sustainability ratings assesses the performances of companies in the categories of Environment, Labour and Human Rights, Sustainable Procurement and Ethics. The rating is based on international sustainability standards including the Global Reporting Initiative, the United Nations Global Compact and ISO 26000.
The evaluation by the independent sustainability platform covers the Zumtobel Group headquarters in Dornbirn as well as all other locations worldwide - including Thorn.
