Group segments in Germany, in %

Deutsche Telekom achieved a high level in the area of health, safety and environmental protection. This is shown by awards such as the Corporate Health Award 2010 and certificates granted in 2011 to business areas responsible for the international Group-wide Health, Safety & Environmental Management System. In 2011 we developed web-based training programs as one way of providing executives with better information on their role in workplace health and safety, and to make them aware of their responsibilities. The communication campaign, "Health for all employees," serves the same purpose. The campaign will focus on sports/fitness, diet and mental health throughout 2012.
