We care...

Our caring culture

The caring culture to which Boehringer Ingelheim has been committed for well over a century embraces a broad range of stakeholders from our patients, our employees and their families through activities for our neighbouring communities and society at large to our natural environment.
Corporate responsibility
Corporate responsibility as practised by our company takes many forms. Of paramount importance for us are the needs of our patients. It is the quest for innovation and medical breakthrough which drives all our activities. We understand that the importance of our company directly depends on the value of the therapies which we can present to those in need of medical help. And we fully grasp the central role of our employees in all our endeavours.
Our history
Boehringer Ingelheim has been always regarded as an excellent employer. From the very beginning, it has focused on providing employees with an attractive place to work, a place in which they feel their contribution is fully recognised and properly rewarded. But our sense of responsibility does not stop there. It has always reached out far beyond our factory gates and today addresses many issues of a truly global nature.
Corporate social responsibility as proposed by international organisations
Boehringer Ingelheim complies with the intention and basic principles of corporate governance and corporate social responsibility as proposed by international organisations, such as the United Nations (UN), the World Health Organization (WHO), the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) or the European Union (EU).
Good corporate citizen
We regard ourselves as a good corporate citizen in all countries in which we operate, or where our products are available. We fully comply with the principles set out in the Global Compact in 1999 under a United Nations initiative.
Our aim is to provide full transparency
Such principles are already fully integrated into our business activities around the world and guide our strategy, corporate culture and day-to-day operations. Our aim is to provide full transparency concerning our business and corporate conduct within the framework of our annual report and other publications.
Product innovation and the morale of our people are our pillars for sustained corporate responsibility
In order to sustain our corporate responsibility, we depend on our business success, driven by product innovation and the morale of our people.
