As an independent, privately owned company, Rohde & Schwarz can plan in the long run without having to think in terms of quarters.
The resulting entrepreneurial freedom allows us to orient all our business processes toward sustainability, from product planning and employee loyalty to a trusting partnership with our customers.
Sustainability is a principle derived from our basic values. This leads to a sustainability management that uses the following model for structuring and assigning all relevant sustainability topics to one of the five key areas and brings them in alignment with our strategic objectives.
While the goal is to come as close as we can to a sustainable way of living and doing business, this ideal changes and develops over the course of time. With the help of our integrated management system, we can ensure that we put the goals outlined in our corporate philosophy into practice effectively, and that we continually improve our processes and activities.
Continuity and innovative creativity are not in conflict, but are inspiring key elements of the Rohde & Schwarz culture, whose stimulating mix drives our employees to achieve the exceptional. We not only encourage new approaches and ways of thinking, we also give our developers the freedom to reach for the previously unthinkable solutions that revolutionize the market and bring our customers sustained benefit. Respect for each individual employee, self-responsibility and open, flat organizational structures shape our corporate culture and ensure fast, unbureaucratic decision-making – advantages that benefit our customers to the full. For many years, top rankings in leading surveys have proven the company's attractiveness as an employer, helping us recruit top industry talent.
Rohde & Schwarz has always placed great emphasis on environmental awareness and protection. Our manufacturing processes and materials meet the highest requirements for energy efficiency and environmental performance.
Through ISO 14001 compliance, Rohde & Schwarz demonstrates its commitment to pollution prevention, environmental regulatory compliance and continual improvement, as well as its dedication to its employees and the community.
