1.2 Training and development
Encouraging personal responsibility, rewarding initiative and fostering professional development are three of the key pillars of our corporate culture.
Customer centricity is always at the heart of our actions because innovation thrives in an environment where the status quo is challenged and collaborations happens across all levels of the organisation.
That is why we seek people who share our values and mindset. Commitment, responsibility and character are the foundation of working at FIEGE and matter more to us than qualifications alone.
As an international family business, we are firmly committed to creating a discrimination-free, inclusive working environment. People & Culture is not an add-on, but a central pillar of our strategy – ensuring appreciation, development, and a strong sense of belonging across the organisation.
We invest in targeted continuing professional development (CPD), offer meaningful roles and place great importance on health and safety in the workplace.

FIEGE Campus: A modern learning and working environment
The FIEGE Academy serves as the Group’s central hub for training and development. It consolidates all learning offerings across the organization and provides comprehensive opportunities for both professional and personal growth.
Since 2024, the FIEGE Campus has combined innovative learning environments with an inspiring natural setting. In November 2025, the Campus expanded the range of jobs for which training was offered and the number of coaching and mentoring fields it supported. The complement of training rooms was also increased.
The Campus is ideal for training seminars, workshops and off-site sessions. Employees have rated the new facilities very positively.
FIEGE Academy successes in 2025

Internationalisation of the Academy by onboarding the first Italian and Swiss locations

Training of the first cohort of in-house business coaches; the next programme, including external participants, will begin in 2026
The Academy’s focus for our colleagues is on:

Support
Exchange and network
Result: A strong employer brand, thereby making a significant contribution to achieving the company's goals.
Motivation and learning culture
There is a clear upwards trend in the average number of training days per employee: in 2023, the number of training days averaged out at 1.1 days per employee; by 2024, this figure had risen to 1.4 days and in 2025 reached 1.6 days (run by or at the FIEGE Academy).
This steady growth reflects the organisation’s commitment to employee development. By ensuring that training is accessible and practice-oriented, we effectively transfer knowledge and strengthen a culture of continuous learning.

Additional relevant topics
Diversity and inclusion
As a firmly embedded part of our corporate culture, diversity is more than “just another topic”. Its impact can be seen in many areas of our daily work.
Occupational health and safety
Sustainable corporate governance cannot exist without core values such as safety, health and long-term support for our employees. We systematically anchor these topics in our strategy and rely on clear structures, strong prevention measures and transparent controls.
In 2025, we implemented a range of measures to strengthen occupational health and safety across the organisation, including:
Launch of Safety², our new HSE platform
Integration of occupational safety processes with ISO 45001
Introduction of standardised safety footwear
Further development of the accident benchmark process
By 2030, we aim to reduce our accident rate by 30% compared to the 2023 baseline – equivalent to an average annual reduction of 5%.
