Corporate Social Responsability

Results from employee surveys showed that there was a general need for more flexible and goal-orientated working hours. The necessary arrangements for manageable, mobile working and flexible working hours were introduced on 1st October 2020. We are exploring new ways to work in the future. These will allow us to promote a good work-life balance, creating a connection between employees and customer focus.

Together, the managers have developed four clear and practicable management principles, filled them with content and derived their personal goals from them. All managers attended topic-specific workshops that support them in their daily management work with best practice examples. All employees know how they can approach their leaders.

In 2020, we successfully set up the Digital Convenience Network in Coop Pronto shops and have continued to expand it. From the beginning, we were determined to do our bit to support sustainability. Together with the Coop Mountain Areas Sponsorship Programme, we chose a bee sponsorship and are now providing dedicated support for projects that work to preserve bees and biodiversity.

Did you know...? Every year we take photo documentations of our customers’ campaigns, altogether around 3000 pictures a year. The photographers are cycle to the locations instead of going by car. The collaboration with Veloblitz is one of our contributions to the area of resource-friendly mobility.

The progressive digitalisation of our business areas, such as the use of apps and remote working, and above all the significant increase in digital advertising space, present us with an increasing number of challenges with regard to IT processes and security. Our IT team focuses on data protection, performance guarantees, bookable campaigns, specifications from location partners and secure operations.

With SPR+, a hard currency is now available for digital out-of-home campaigns. Goldbach Neo goes one step further and is the first provider to have its digital campaigns certified by WEMF, an independent advertising media research company. This is our response to the fact that digital out-of-home advertising is constantly growing and that the advertising market needs valid information on this.

Outdoor advertising naturally involves daily interaction with a wide range of partners – companies, government organisations, associations, consumers, authorities, land owners and administrative bodies. The way we conduct our business is based on a comprehensive set of compliance and transparency rules, which underpin ourreliability as a business partner.

Tom Gibbings, CEO: "Our rules are strict and comprehensive. I am proud to say we take them seriously. Internal training creates understanding, protected disclosure creates trust and systematic control provides reassurance about everything we do."
