Siemens supports first responders in fight against flood

"This flood disaster shows that we can all become victims at any time," says Roland Busch, CEO of Siemens AG. "As part of our social responsibility, we would like to support the affected regions in the short term with an immediate package of 250,000 euros for initial relief measures. In this way, we want to send a signal of support to those affected and the highest appreciation to all helpers." 
Siemens also plans to provide unbureaucratic support for affected employees and locations. This also applies to affected regions outside Germany. In addition to its responsibility for its own production sites and work locations, Siemens also assumes responsibility for society. Social commitment is part of Siemens AG's self-image and, in addition to disaster relief, also includes support for research and technology, education and training, the environment, culture, sports and social issues, as well as the Siemens Foundations and the non-profit organization Siemens Caring Hands e.V.
"In addition to our company's commitment, numerous colleagues around the world are committed to the common good in their regions," says Judith Wiese, Member of the Managing Board, CHRO, CSO and Labor Director. "Siemens would therefore also like to thank its employees who volunteered their time through the volunteer fire department or the German Federal Agency for Technical Relief to participate in the measures to combat the flood disaster."
