NORMA Group promotes diversity and signs the Charter of Diversity
Maintal, 9 April 2013 - NORMA Group, a global market and technology leader
for engineered joining technology, signed the Charter of Diversity in March
2013. With its signature, NORMA Group commits to promoting diversity across
the company. 'Its international and diverse workforce is a characteristic
of NORMA Group. We can only be economically successful if we identify and
make use of the existing diversity. It is therefore important to create a
workplace that is free of prejudices. We want all employees to feel
appreciated and enjoy equal opportunities - irrespective of their sex,
nationality, ethnic origin, religion or beliefs, disability, age, sexual
orientation and identity,' says Werner Deggim, CEO of NORMA Group.
The Charter of Diversity is a corporate initiative under the patronage of
the German Chancellor Dr. Angela Merkel. The initiative wants to advance
the recognition, appreciation and utilisation of corporate diversity in
Germany. By signing the Charter, companies commit inter alia to a corporate
culture that is characterised by mutual appreciation and the respect of
each individual.
'Promoting diversity is an important corporate goal for 2013 and beyond,'
says Stephan Koenig, head of Human Resources at NORMA Group. 'The diversity
of our workforce with their different skills and talents creates
opportunities for innovative and creative solutions. The exchange with
colleagues in other countries and regions, for instance, strengthens the
intra-cultural diversity of NORMA Group.'
Aletta Countess of Hardenberg, general manager of the Corporate Charter of
Diversity for Germany (Charta der Vielfalt e.V.) says: 'We are very pleased
to welcome NORMA Group among the over 1,400 signatories of the Charter of
Diversity. We are also delighted that NORMA Group will participate in the
first German Diversity Day, a national day of action on 11 June 2013. We
welcome NORMA Group and look forward to a lively dialogue.'
