Additional Comments

Our employees need to be aware of and understand our strategy to buy in to the programmes and to help deliver them. So we have further strengthened our communication and have made corporate sustainability a regular key communication topic of our blogs, our monthly newsletter, our employee magazine Inside as well as employee events. On the brands’ side, TaylorMade-adidas Golf for example launched an internal sustainability website for its employees in Carlsbad.
