We continue to build on a long heritage of managing our internal environmental impact, which, since the 1970s, has focused on increasing energy efficiency, reducing consumption of paper and other resources, actively managing waste volumes and encouraging our employees to replace air travel with more sustainable options.

Responsible procurement is a key aspect of UBS’s approach to human rights and the environment, in line with our endorsement of the UN Global Compact principles, and in support of the UBS Group Environmental Policy and the UBS Statement on Human Rights.

Health and safety are integral parts of our corporate responsibility. At UBS, we aim to create a work and business environment that safeguards the health and safety of employees, business partners or clients. A safe and healthy work environment supports employees in performing their jobs in a productive and efficient manner.

We aim to make our locations and our services for accessible for all clients and provide a working environment - both logistically and culturally - that enable all employees to be an integral part of our company.
