Responsibility for the Community
Every person is equal and deserves the same opportunities. thyssenkrupp strengthens this principle with various projects and initiatives worldwide. Together with our employees, we are committed to education and equal opportunities. At the same time, we provide support in acute emergency situations. In this way, we make a positive contribution to local society. Today and tomorrow.
Education
Innovation is the driver of our business development. We want to spread thyssenkrupp's inventive genius. Because we are convinced: Education is a fundamental right that belongs to all people equally. For this reason we work closely in various global partnerships. Our goal: children and adolescents can freely develop their potential within an educational context. And students can explore their skills in practice. For a curious and courageous look towards the future.
Whether biology, chemistry or mathematics – at "Jugend forscht" children and trainees deal with various scientific questions. The young participants present their innovative ideas and solutions in an annual regional competition. thyssenkrupp Steel Europe has supported the project in its organization and implementation for 40 years. Our colleagues are also members of the expert jury. We firmly believe: together we will inspire the scientists of tomorrow.
Community & Equal opportunities
There are still many grievances and challenges in our society. For example, many people are still disadvantaged in their professional life. At the same time, natural disasters increase. Together we want to counteract this! That's why thyssenkrupp is involved in various collaborations and initiatives that promote equal opportunities. But we also support in acute disaster situations. For the community. For a better future.
We are certain: every person deserves the same opportunities. Regardless of gender or origin. Employees from thyssenkrupp Materials Services have therefore decided to participate in socialbee's Female Accelerator Program in 2022. The aim of the cooperation? To give refugee women with an academic background a professional perspective. An important part of the project is the one-year qualification program. The participants are trained to become project managers at our company. Specially trained mentors and trainers from thyssenkrupp will support them. We were so impressed by this approach that we hired an employee from Turkey in addition to the two program participants.
