Action Areas
Our Five Action Areas at a Glance
At the heart of our sustainability reporting is the Annual Report, which we prepare in full compliance with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS). It is accompanied by other key sustainability indicators, which we present in this ESG Factbook. You can find more detailed information on our sustainability strategy and sustainability topics on our corporate website.
Supplementary reporting formats and the publication of commitments and policies round off our sustainability reporting.
We have allocated these topics to five different action areas, which in turn serve as the basis for our sustainability reporting process:
In the Environment and Climate action area, the focus is on the goal of reducing carbon emissions in the housing stock and in sustainable new construction and conversions.
In our Society and Contribution to Urban Development action area, we are committed to creating neighborhoods that are a pleasure to live in.
Our Homes and Customers action area focuses on our efforts to provide attractive housing for our tenants.
This is made possible by our diverse and creative workforce, whose needs are taken into account in the action area Corporate Culture and Employees.
The Sustainable Governance and Responsible Business Practices action area stipulates the guidelines and principles of our corporate governance and compliance and ensures our sustainable and long-term success on the capital market for our future viability.
We will be climate neutral by 2045 and our new builds will be increasingly more sustainable.
