After the expiration of most of the restrictions imposed by COVID-19, the reporting year 2022 was characterized by a resurgence in operating business. However, the ongoing as well as new crises and challenges resulting from the pandemic did not leave ROBUR’s partner companies unscathed. The effects were not only challenging from an economic point of view, but also had an impact on our partners and colleagues on various levels. We consistently pursued our ambitious sustainability targets despite all adversities and are able to look back on satisfactory results overall.
Our goal achievement for the reporting year 2022 is as follows:
100 % compensation of our flight-related mobility expenses.
Compensation flight-related emissions
in % and t CO2e
844,1 t - emissions from air traffic
844,1 t - compensated emissions
As in the previous year’s period, 100% of the flight-related emissions were offset through various compensations. Voluntarily, our partners also compensated further mobility-related emissions (e.g., for train journeys or via DKV fuel cards). Overall, ROBUR was able to offset just under 10% of its total emissions.
In total, ROBUR was thus able to offset just under 10% of its total emissions.
Implementation of further charging infrastructure for electric vehicles at at least 4 additional ROBUR locations.
In the reporting year, we were able to create an additional 10 charging points for our company vehicles as well as the vehicles of our colleagues at 3 other ROBUR locations.
However, the limited availability of service providers and material prevented the complete achievement of the target here.
Increase the share of green electricity at all ROBUR sites to at least 50 %.
We were able to increase the share of green electricity used at all ROBUR locations to a total of 69%. The target of 50% for the reporting year 2022 therefore could be clearly exceeded. This corresponds to an increase of 44% in comparison with the previous year’s period.

Development of a ROBUR-wide vehicle/ fleet policy.
Across all business units we have agreed on firmly defined vehicle categories, specifications and manufacturers. These standards will be successively implemented in the future as part of new acquisitions and the modernization of our vehicle fleet. An increase in leasing rate budgets for electric vehicles will also help make alternatively powered vehicles more attractive.
Increase the use of public transport and alternative mobility options.
The Robur partners recorded a lively response for all alternative mobility offers and were able to further increase acceptance and their use. In the context of our business travel, the use of rail transportis slightly increasing.

Reduction of non-recyclable waste and hazardous waste.
The total waste volume increased by 273.33t to 1,422.77t in the reporting year. However, in relation to our sales result, the total amount of waste per €1million in sales decreased from 4.26t/million to 4.10t/million. This corresponds to a saving of 0.16t per million sales compared to 2021.
The total amount of hazardous waste has decreased from 386t in 2021 to 62.2t in 2022.
Review and certification of the methodology used to collect and calculate our carbon footprint.
The certification of the ROBUR Carbon Footprint by TÜV Nord, was successfully completed with the issuance of the certificate on October 25, 2022.
Reduce the total number of workrelated injuries and completely prevent occupational accidents with serious consequences.
The physical integrity of our colleagues is our top priority. Reducing the number of occupational accidents and work-related injuries with serious consequences in the reporting year is both an incentive and an obligation. We will continue to do everything we can to further reduce work-related injuries in the future.

Development/implementation of a ROBUR training and further education concept.
The training concepts at the level of our business units (BUs) again proved effective in reporting year 2022. The basic voluntary commitment to comply with statutory training and development requirements and the needsbased and target-oriented individual training and development of our colleagues were consistently applied in the reporting year.
Increase the average training time of our colleagues to 20 hours per year.
