Sustainability
Sustainability and corporate responsibility have a tradition at HOCHTIEF and are therefore firmly anchored in our corporate strategy, our vision, and in our corporate principles. We rely on a balanced harmony between the three aspects of economy, ecology and social responsibility. Since 2006, we have been listed in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index for our commitment to sustainability.
