Social sustainability at RHEINZINK
We are more than just a production facility. As part of a family business with a strong tradition, our employees are particularly important to us. At RHEINZINK, we place particular emphasis on high occupational safety standards and health protection, as well as leisure and further training opportunities. The canteen allowance, our own fitness studio and counselling by a social worker are just a few of the many other opportunities we offer. We are committed to our employees, the next generation and the region.
Because young talent is our future
In order to ensure the success of our company, young professionals are very important to us. That's why we offer a wide range of training opportunities – from electronics technicians to industrial mechanics to a dual bachelor's degree programme. We cooperate with local schools and also offer internships.
As initiator and member of the nationwide "Training Working Group", we are committed to promoting the next generation of plumbers and roofers in collaboration with trainers and vocational school teachers. Of course, we also train plumbers ourselves.
Together for the region
Since the beginning of our company's history, we have been manufacturing our products at our site in Datteln, Germany, and are strongly committed to the common good in the region. As the main sponsor of the Datteln Lock Run, for example, we support the Datteln Children's Palliative Care Centre as well as the organisation We See Hope, which helps to build a future for disadvantaged children in Southeast Africa.
We also regularly support charitable organisations as part of our Social Day. This involves our apprentices changing their place of work for a day. They spruce up outdoor areas, do painting work or support larger projects such as the construction of a volleyball court.
Corporate Social Responsibility at RHEINZINK
CSR is more than just a certification for us. That's why we work every day to ensure fair treatment of the environment, our employees and our business partners. We are all the more pleased that the rating agency EcoVadis awarded us, as a member of the Grillo Group, "Gold" for the first time in 2015 for our exemplary sustainable thinking and actions.
