are committed to ensuring that the plants and structures that we plan
meet the criteria of social compatibility and sustainable development.
We attach particular importance to environmental
protection when rendering our services and to the
long-term environmental compatibility of our plants and

and consulting tasks for which we are convinced that we
can fulfil our environmental and social responsibility under
the given boundary conditions. These principles are part of
the ILF Group Mission Statement. Our sustainability policy
and quality policy also guide our business operations in
this context.
As an international engineering and consulting firm, we
operate in various business environments with complex
challenges. Compliance with national laws and regulations
is an essential basis for all of our actions.
We are an independent engineering and consulting firm,
whose shares are entirely privately owned. Our actions

COMPLIANCE CULTURE
Our compliance culture forms the basis of our compliance
system. It mirrors the general mindset and the actual
behavior of ILF leadership and all ILF staff. This
compliance culture also increases the importance that
all ILF employees attribute to observing rules and thus
on our overall willingness to act in a compliant manner.
Each CMS comprises a reporting system in which the
compliance managers of the individual companies report
to the Chief Risk Officer and the relevant Regional Group
Director of the ILF Group.
These CMSs are checked at regular intervals for efficiency
and effectiveness.
Our ILF Code of Conduct is the core of our compliance
culture. It encompasses binding principles of conduct to
be observed by all managing directors, staff members
and business partners of the ILF Group.
COMPLIANCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

observed, all companies of the ILF Group have Compliance

• Corruption prevention
