Social

EVERYONE COUNTS

We believe in equal opportunities for all – regardless of background, gender or education. Because each individual contributes to joint success with their uniqueness. Appreciation, fairness and a respectful relationship characterize our actions. And because people are our greatest asset, we care about their health.

Fair opportunities are not a privilege – they are our responsibility

Social sustainability starts in our everyday lives. In fair cooperation, in development opportunities and in the appreciation of each individual. We are convinced that Those who feel comfortable at FATH also contribute to our success.

At FATH, we believe in the strength of diverse teams. Different perspectives, experience, and backgrounds are not incompatible with efficiency—they are prerequisites for it. That’s why we are committed to equality, diversity and inclusion. Our goal: a working environment where all people are welcome and able to thrive, regardless of gender, background, age, religion or disability.

The continuous increase in the proportion of women – including in technical and management roles – is just as much part of our commitment as an open corporate culture that actively promotes diversity. It’s not about symbolism, but about attitude.

At the same time, we know: Work and personal life should be integrated, not mutually exclusive. That’s why we enable flexible working time models, part-time solutions and mobile working, adapted to different phases of life. We provide flexibility to accommodate family responsibilities, individual challenges and changes in life circumstances. One story that demonstrates this is that of our part-time trainees, who follow their career path at FATH individually and successfully.

Sustainability grows where people take responsibility together

As a medium-sized company, we are firmly rooted in our region – and we do not see this as a matter of course, but as an obligation. For us, sustainable business also means taking on social responsibility, sharing knowledge and actively engaging in local networks.

Through the Franconian Entrepreneur Campus in Germany (Unternehmercampus Franken), we are working together with regional companies - both in executive training and the new UCF Junior Program in the field of vocational training.

These include the School-Business Working Group, in which our training team regularly participates. We also give our trainees the chance to participate in the German BDS Apprentice Academy (BDS Azubi Akademie), a collaboration between the BDS region of Central Franconia and the district's economic development team. There they can access valuable additional resources, expand their network, and learn to think beyond their own field of expertise.

We have a variety of partnerships and collaborations with local companies in the industrial park, particularly with regard to training. One such collaboration is the Hill Mill Park Event, which brings together apprentices from a range of industries. This creates an environment where shared learning, personal growth and entrepreneurial thinking are actively encouraged.
