¯I The IFUB* Values

We live and work by our

IFUB* values.

First and foremost is

conscientiousness

in building trust and cultivating open, honest, and respectful relationships. We strive to ensure just and fair treatment for all. In doing so, we value

diversity

in all its forms - not only for reasons of fairness and equality, but above all for the enrichment and inspiration it provides. Such inspiration fuels our

research spirit

and continues to drive new ideas. Only by remaining open and attentive can we generate innovative solutions to current issues. We direct a lot of focus to protecting our

environment,

both in our projects and in our own homes. To achieve our ecological goals, we hope to usher in a new era of

post-growth,

which we look forward to collectively and with optimism. No matter what it is all about in the end, working on our projects together, for the common good, and having great

fun

while doing so, is what makes us who we are.

¯I How we act.

We don't just talk about it, we put our beliefs into action:

With our team …

  • We work full-time 32 hours a week, and we welcome part-time contracts for balancing work and family or pursuing personal goals.
  • We don’t do overtime, but if it’s necessary, then fully paid.
  • We support home office - and not just during pandemics.
  • We keep our salaries and business figures transparent.
  • We expect and encourage training and development.
  • We finance ‘job-bikes’ or tickets for public transport.
  • We avoid air-travel wherever possible, motivating ourselves with rail cards and an extra five days of vacation for every flight-free year.

... in our everyday working life ...

  • We don’t fly but travel by train.
  • We search online with Ecosia, planting trees by doing so.
  • We use ecological office materials and try to use them sparingly.
  • We use ecological cleaning products and source them from packaging-free retailers.
  • We drink tap water from glass bottles, oat milk in our coffee, and prefer organic produce.

... and towards our social responsibility.

  • We donate 10% of our annual profits to charitable organizations. The rest stays within the company for fair wages and to reach our common good objectives.
  • We bank with GLS Bank.
  • We are a member of the Economy for the Common Good and we issued our 1. Common Good Balance Sheet in 2021.
