GFA’s corporate sustainability strategy comprises five fields of action: corporate governance, climate protection, resource protection, staff satisfaction and loyalty, and social commitments. The UNGC Ten Principles are guiding our corporate policies in the areas of human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption as well as our annual sustainability report. With the consolidation of our sustainability and compliance management system, we are sowing seeds for a sustainable future in the 2020s. We have also committed to taking responsibility into the digital world by joining the principles for digital development.

Social Commitment

GFA’s overall mission is to foster the creation, protection, and distribution of wealth, as well as to promote social justice, the protection of natural resources, and the fight against poverty around the world. To this end, GFA implements development projects for public sector clients. The social commitment of the company, and of its employees, is thus deeply anchored in the company’s core business and corporate values.

GFA has been supporting voluntary activities of its employees in local projects via " GFA BRIDGES " and at its location in Hamburg-Volksdorf for many years. This social commitment is systematically embedded in GFA’s sustainability strategy, adopted in January 2018, and is one of the five key areas of action aimed at strengthening social and environmental sustainability. The goal is to align the measures towards sustainability consistently and in line with the overall corporate goal based on verifiable indicators, and to communicate these internally and externally. Each of the measures is supervised by an employee of GFA, who is also the contact person.
