Sustainability Priorities

OSI’s sustainability work is broken down into three key groups to help identify and tackle the most important topics within our business: Environment, Social, and Governance.

Resource Conservation

We take our responsibility for the usage of natural resources very seriously.

Thus, we are constantly implementing new projects to conserve resources in everything that we do. Here, we introduce some of them:

  • 100% Green Electricity
  • Energy Transmission Project
  • Project Baseline

Our Projects

Climate Change

We publicly commit to global science-based targets to reduce Scope 1, 2 & 3 emissions, in accordance with the Paris Climate Agreement.

These are some of our many projects to achieve our ambitious goals:

  • Net Zero Pathway at Brongain Farm
  • Measurements of emissions „Farm to Fork”
  • Cultivate Program

Our Projects

Value Chain

The collaboration with our farmers is essential to us. We do not put all the weight and responsibility on the shoulders of our suppliers. Instead, we work together to find better solutions to meet the challenges of our times.

Here are some examples of how we foster partnering relationships to better achieve our common goals together

  • Supplier Engagement
  • Sustainable Agriculture Academy in Poland
  • Beef Production 2.0 – Survey of Agricultural Sector in Austria

 

Our Projects

Animal Welfare

We are leading in animal welfare practices worldwide. This makes us very proud and ambitious to keep this high standard up as well as raise the bar even further. Here, we introduce some of our many practices and projects to further increase animal welfare:

  • BEST Beef
  • Cow Goggles
  • Enrichment and Lighting Program in Broiler Houses
  • High Frequency Full Spectrum LEDs in Broiler Houses
  • Lumachain
  • Arrowsight

Our Projects

Safe & Respectful Workplaces

Safe and respectful workplaces are vital for all our employees to give their best every day. Diversity is at the core of what OSI Europe is. Work safety, inclusion and respect are deeply rooted in our values, as well. Moreover, we pursue many projects and activities that keep our high standard at our workplaces, among them:

  • Work Safety
  • Safety Awards
  • Safety KPIs
  • Equal Treatment

Our Projects

Communities We Serve

We foster strong and consistent relationships with the communities we affect. Rather, we view ourselves as those who serve the communities around us. Safe food for our customers and being a responsible partner with our local communities – this is very important to us. That’s why ongoing support and solidarity is simply a part of who we are. Here you can explore some of our many contributions to our local communities:
