Statement for democracy and respect for human rights

Diversity, respect, and responsibility

We stand firmly against racist and inhuman ideologies, as we firmly believe that our employees’ diversity is the foundation of our success. Every person is unique, and it is precisely this uniqueness that enriches us as a team and a company.

Respect and openness: the basis of our teamwork

Mutual respect and an appreciative approach to one another are the foundation of our teamwork. At Arineo, we accept people as they are and treat each other as equals – regardless of origin, gender, religion, sexual orientation, or other characteristics. We promote a working environment where everyone feels safe and welcome to express their opinions and contribute creatively.

Responsibility towards people and the environment

Responsibility is a core component of our corporate culture. We see it as our duty to act not only in the company’s interests but also in the interests of society and the environment. Sustainable business practices and ethical decisions are essential to us, and we work toward creating solutions that have long-lasting positive impacts.

Commitment to the common good

Arineo assumes responsibility not only within the company but also in society. We are involved in various social and environmental projects that reflect our beliefs. We know that our success is measured not only by financial results but also by our contribution to the community’s well-being.

A clear stance against exclusion

Any form of discrimination, exclusion, or extremism has no place in our corporate culture. We stand firmly for an environment of tolerance and mutual respect. A strong, values-driven team can only grow in an environment free of prejudice, where all employees have equal opportunities.

Shaping the future together

At Arineo, we don’t just work together – we shape the future together. Our values of diversity, respect, and responsibility are the foundation on which we grow and drive innovation. We invite everyone to join this journey and create a sustainable and inclusive future with us.

Diversity Statement

"On the one hand, all people are equal, on the other hand, people are different due to their historical and cultural affiliations."*

Our counterpart is important to us. In its entirety – with its preferences, talents, dreams, affiliations, and identities. We demonstrate this through our actions, our social commitment, and our language. Our position is clear; we condemn all forms of discrimination and racism and are committed to value-oriented and economic behavior – for example as a founding member of the Enkelfähig movement. Furthermore, we are convinced that a mixed composition of our teams with younger and older colleagues, different genders, people of different ethnic or social backgrounds, nationalities, or world views leads to significantly better results.
