New code of ethics for the Companies of the SHS – Stahl-Holding-Saar (SHS Group)

Working together with the Management Board of Dillinger Hütte and Saarstahl, and with the agreement of the Works Councils, the executives of SHS have now created a uniform code of ethics for the Companies of the SHS – Stahl-Holding-Saar (SHS Group). With this code we seek to manifest in writing our values and our conduct to date, both in our relationships with one another and with our customers and other business partners.

The new code of ethics is an essential component of the SHS Group corporate governance concept. The code contains all of the principles and measures that aim to ensure that legal representatives, employees and third parties act in compliance with the rules. As such, it is derived from our internal standards and principles. We have also oriented ourselves in this effort on national and international standards.

The new code of ethics replaces the former “Guideline for the personal behaviour with business partners” released in 2006.
