The pillars of our commitment in detail
Sustainability and the environment
Sustainability is a key element of Syntax’s strategy. We embrace energy-efficient IT solutions that not only help our customers to save resources, but also actively contribute to mitigating climate change. Our data centers are designed with energy efficiency in mind and use state-of-the-art technologies to minimize carbon emissions.
To further improve our environmental footprint, we have introduced an eco-friendly “Green Fleet” with an emphasis on sustainable mobility. This approach is complemented by strict environmental standards in cooperation with suppliers, customers, and partners.
Our supply chain is also modeled on sustainable principles by integrating environmental and social standards into our procurement processes. The aim is not only to protect the environment, but also to create long-term partnerships based on shared values.
Syntax also supports companies with sustainable IT solutions that use real-time data analysis and predictive maintenance to help increase operational efficiency and save resources. In addition, Syntax optimizes workflows and reduces emissions by using AI-supported technologies such as drones, for example, which replace fixed sensor infrastructure and minimize costs and personnel requirements.
Employee experience
Our employees are at the heart of our success. Syntax has a mission to create a work environment based on diversity, equal opportunities, and personal development.
Initiatives such as “Women in Tech” specifically promote female professionals in the technology industry and provide a platform for mentoring, leadership programs, and personal development. What’s more, we attach great importance to mental health, inclusion, and work–life balance to cultivate a healthy and productive work environment.
Our commitment also includes safety standards in the workplace, professional development programs, and measures that increase the satisfaction and motivation of our teams on a lasting basis.
Society and social affairs
The focus here is on education and social responsibility. Initiatives such as the Syntax Service Week or the “Children’s Heroes” mentoring program for children unlock educational opportunities and promote social engagement.
Corporate governance
Corporate governance is a key component of the culture at Syntax. Our actions are guided by clear principles laid down in our Code of Conduct for employees and business partners. These standards ensure that we take a transparent, responsible, and ethical approach to our business processes.
Compliance regulations play a critical role here: We are actively committed to preventing corruption and bribery and fostering an environment based on trust and integrity. Our employees and partners are given regular training to ensure that they embrace these principles on a daily basis.
