Social responsibility
Employees who think entrepreneurially, act respectfully, and take responsibility are the key to our success. We create a safe working environment and promote attractive conditions, personal growth, and equal treatment for all.
The social responsibility area of our sustainability strategy comprises two key topics: “Occupational health and safety” and “Attractive employer”. You can find here our ambitions within these topics and further information on our activities.
Material topic: Occupational health and safety
As a food processing company, ORIOR places great emphasis on ensuring a safe and healthy workplace, supporting both physical and mental well-being. Therefore, we are committed to comprehensive health and safety management. Preventive measures such as training and ergonomic workplace design are aimed at preventing accidents, reducing illness and promoting long-term well-being. Throughout the entire value chain, we ensure that our suppliers adhere to minimum standards that guarantee safe and healthy working conditions.

Preventive measures
To safeguard the health of our employees, we conduct regular internal inspections and external risk assessments in the competence centres – whether regarding safety-related topics or in the area of psychosocial stress. In addition, all employees have free access to the Employee Assistance Program from ICAS counselling and advisory services so they can receive support in difficult situations.
Material topic: Attractive employer
As an attractive employer, we aim to attract talented and diverse individuals. We foster a work environment where everyone feels valued, can realize their potential, and continue to grow, ensuring a lasting connection with ORIOR. While we focus on training and development as well as the promotion of diversity at our ORIOR locations, issues such as working conditions and equal opportunities pose particular challenges upstream in our value chain in countries that have less stringent laws and protection systems. We therefore increasingly embed social and ethical standards in our supplier relationships.
One of our activities
Promoting training and development
The “ORIOR Campus” is a means for us to invest in the development of our employees through targeted training and educational programmes. We continually develop our training services. To enable the long-term retention of workers already within the ORIOR world, we further develop our talent management.
Product responsibility
Excellence in Food rests not only on our superb craftsmanship and the recipes and production processes, but also on the raw materials we use.
Environmental responsibility
We are well aware of our environmental impact. Astute management of resources is a top priority at the Group level and at every centre of competence.
Governance
Good corporate governance is key to the success of our company, as it promotes transparency, responsibility and ethical behaviour. This strengthens the trust of our stakeholders and promotes long-term stability for the company.
Sustainability at ORIOR
“The ORIOR Responsibility” is part of our core business and the prerequisite for Excellence in Food.
