CYBERGROUP SUSTAINABILITY | REPORT EN 01|22

meeting areas we have provided ergonomically shaped chairs for comfort during work, relieve stress on your back and invite you to actively change your perspective.Focussed work and concetration in peace and quiet, we placed a special focus on noise reduction. The flooring, ceilings and walls were designed to absorb sound, even work tools such as pin and magnetic walls were included in the concept. These are not just meant to be used for collecting ideas and making mood boards, but they also feature sound-absorbing properties. Employees can retreat to one of our small comfortable lounges for a bit of peace and quiet should they wish. In addition our open plan kitchen and lounge area promotes team spirit and comradery. We have found that this new environment has helped to further promote an atmosphere that fuels employee motivation, leadership and constructive working atmosphere. We have seen the level of employee engagement and stimulation of new ideas and questions increase significantly. From simple ideas such as offering a free a fruit basket, to new product ideas and the implementation of new social and environmental measures. The employees are more empowered and actively participate in the development of new business ideas. The attractive design and open plan of the building clearly stimulates more ideas and creative thinking. WORKING GREAT TOGETHER One of the things that makes Cybergroup what it is today is team spirit and co-operation. Working together is one of the things that allows us to stand out from our competition and delivers the extra mile for our customers. We are very proud of our team which is why we host many company events as well as our annual beach volleyball event for our staff and supply chain partners, “the Beach Cup” hosted in Mannheim. We continually strive to promote this co-operation and the team spirit and passion that is part of the DNA of Cybergroup. FUTURE DESK 2.0 Working from home! What used to seem rather absurd to us has become the norm during the pandemic. This flexible way of working is modern and fulfils employees’ desire for greater flexibility. The sustainability aspect is also evident here: no commute necessary. We have set ourselves the goal of accelerating this trend for innovative, digital working opportunities. It brings a wealth of advantages when it comes to onboarding, too, as the qualified employee no longer necessarily needs to be based in the Rhine-Neckar district. For these reasons, we would like to continue to allow our employees to work from home for one or two days a week after the pandemic. However, we still believe that it is important that employees come into the office to work at least two days a week, because one thing the pandemic has shown us is that social interaction is crucial for our well-being. Like many things in life – a happy medium will work best here, too. EDUCATION AND INTEGRATION - LIVING TOGETHER Employee cohesion and a sense of belonging to a team is the cornerstone of healthy and socially responsible business growth. At Cybergroup we started to work with the Chamber of Industry and Commerce back in 2004. Since then we have developed members of our team to become specialists in logistics, warehousing and experts both in wholesale overseas trade. 2021 has seen us form a new partnership with the IUBH of the International University in Mannheim. In this relationship Cybergroup has become 18 CYBERGROUP
