Quality, environmental protection, occupational safety, security, and data protection place tough demands on our company. We set high standards and values in these areas – and do so worldwide. In our guidelines, we have set out what we want to achieve. In 1996, we formulated environmental protection guidelines for the entire Bosch Group. In the same year, we also began the gradual introduction of environmental management systems at all our manufacturing sites.

In the continuous further development of our management system, we also draw on the approaches and methods contained in the EFQM (European Foundation for Quality Management) business excellence model. It places particular emphasis on customer satisfaction and helps companies not only to stay within budget but also to improve the services they provide to partners, associates, and society.
