HUMAN RIGHTS AND ENVIRONMENTAL STANDARDS.

Social sustainability within the company, along the supply chain and also in society, plays a key role for the BMW Group. For years, we have aspired to respect human rights and applicable environmental standards along the global supply chain of our vehicles. To achieve this, we rely on collaboration – because we can only effectively counter the risks in our supply chain together.

In doing so, we employ on a catalogue of measures and the dovetailing of training courses, contractual agreements, certification and testing by means of questionnaires and audits. We determine specific need for action through regular risk analysis, enabling us to identify raw materials whose procurement and processing involve increased risks (possible negative impacts) on people and the environment.
