The MagentaHome business unit has developed the open, cross-manufacturer Smart Home platform and the MagentaZuhause App. This gives customers the opportunity to combine devices from different companies easily and individually and to control them via app.

With the free MagentaZuhause App, customers can easily control smart devices from different manufacturers and intelligently network them with routines. In combination with LEDs, smart plugs, cameras and radiator thermostats, the home can easily become a smart home. The app helps to make everyday life more comfortable, increase security and save energy. For example, smart lighting that switches on automatically when someone comes home, or smart heating that adapts to the habits of the residents and saves energy. With the MagentaZuhause App, our customers stay connected to their home. Even when they are on the move.

Checking the home network, activating and sharing the guest Wi-Fi and optimising the Wi-Fi are just some of the many home network management options with the MagentaZuhause App.

In addition, our customers can monitor their energy needs, minimize unnecessary consumption, thereby reducing costs and contributing to a greener future.

Wi-Fi or IP devices can be connected directly to the app and no longer require a Smart Home gateway. This makes it easier to get started in the connected home. In addition, the app can also be used to control MagentaTV content - even by voice.

Customers can choose from several hundred different smart home devices. These include products from partners such as Philips Hue, WiZ, LEDVANCE, Gardena, Sonos, IKEA and D-Link. With a smart home-capable Telekom router, customers also have the option of using it as a smart home gateway in order to use wireless technologies beyond WLAN.

At the iF Design Award 2023, the MagentaZuhauseAapp was awarded in the category "User Experience - Product UX".

The MagentaZuhause App offers a high level of protection - as attested by the independent institute for IT security, AV-TEST GmbH. The security test 01/2023 repeatedly concludes that the app prevents manipulation by external parties and that communication is secure.

We keep our goal of reducing our carbon footprint in mind when planning and operating our data centers. To achieve this goal, we take a two-step approach. It starts with optimizing energy consumption at each data center site and then continues with improving processes throughout the global data center landscape.

Our aim is to increase the share of renewable energy on a yearly basis. Therefore our reported target is to increase our share in comparison to the previous year.

As a large corporation, Telekom assumes responsibility for environmental protection. Uniform environmental standards ensure that resource-saving behavior is anchored in all processes and in the daily behavior of employees. To this end, the Group has implemented an HSE (Health, Safety and Environment) management system in all fully consolidated companies.
There are internationally recognized standards for environmental protection in companies, such as the ISO standards (standards of the International Organization for Standardization, ISO for short). These form the basis for environmental management at Telekom. This ensures that environmental policy is implemented uniformly throughout the Group.

Telekom in Germany has been working in accordance with the international standard ISO 14001 for environmental management systems since 1998. Compliance with the ISO standard enables, among other things, resources to be used more efficiently, energy to be saved and waste to be avoided. Employees help to further increase environmental friendliness with their own suggestions.

Telekom's commitment goes far beyond the issue of climate protection: Since 2010, a uniform Group-wide HSE management system has been in place. HSE stands for the three main topics of health, safety and environment. The international standards for occupational health and safety, environmental management and quality management serve as the basis for this.
Employees and experts from all Deutsche Telekom national companies regularly exchange information and jointly develop a comprehensive management system. Internal and external audits are conducted regularly to verify that the requirements of the HSE management system are consistently implemented in the company's day-to-day operations.

Here you can find the manual for our central Health, Safety and Environment Management System (HSE MS) of Deutsche Telekom Group. This means that it covers 100% of all Deutsche Telekom units.

For the third year in a row, the Corona crisis has had a massive impact on the world of work. In addition, society faces other challenges: the outbreak of the Ukraine war in February 2022 has made the world more uncertain, and the energy crisis, supply shortages and inflation are felt by everyone in their daily lives. These changes affect all areas of life and move people to want to make the world a better place. Candidates not only want a secure job, but also a sense of purpose in their work, self-fulfillment, continuous development and a contribution to society and the environment.

That is why we have redefined our employer brand in order to attract talented people to Telekom in the face of the known shortage of skilled workers and to convince them to follow their future path with us. For us, there is no specific destination at the end of the journey, but it is a journey that enables talents to realize their ambitions and grow together with us. With a global network of experts, our employees are part of the ever-evolving digital transformation, driving sustainable change and their skills. We call it Growthtopia. The times we live in demand that we express our shared values and that we stand together in the struggle for fairness and equal treatment. With target group-specific messages, authentic communication and the hashtag #QuestionTodayCreateTomorrow, we show what change means to us and what opportunities talents can discover at Deutsche Telekom.

Together with satellite company Inmarsat, Deutsche Telekom is offering the fastest inflight broadband service for European travelers.

The European Aviation Network (EAN) has been developed by Inmarsat and Deutsche Telekom in partnership with leading European companies such as Thales, Nokia, Airbus, and Cobham. It marks a paradigm shift in the airline passenger experience, with incomparable speeds, uninterrupted coverage and significantly lower latency than any other inflight Wi-Fi network in the continent.

The award-winning connectivity solution has been available to over 85 million passengers to date, travelling on more than 650.000 flights throughout Europe, covering key destinations such as London, Madrid, Barcelona, Geneva and Rome. EAN has now been activated in 275 aircraft and is currently available with British Airways, Iberia, Vueling and Aegean Airlines.

Machines and products are constantly becoming smarter. The technologies that make these developments possible are bundled under the term Internet of Things, or IoT.
IoT can help ideally coordinate the processes of various devices, vehicles, and entire industrial facilities. This increases industrial productivity and ensures efficient logistics, thus helping reduce energy consumption and conserve resources.
We also support the German federal government’s Industry 4.0 initiative through our involvement in IoT. The initiative’s objective is to maintain Germany’s competitive edge in the technology sector.

T-Systems has been developing and operating Daimler’s Connected Car platform (Daimler vehicle backend) worldwide since 2013.

Every two years we conduct our employee survey in order to obtain feedback from our employees, discover weaknesses, and implement suitable actions to eliminate those weaknesses. The analysis on team level and of other criteria (e.g. function, executives vs. leader vs. employee, gender, age group) support the derivation of fitting concrete improvement actions on all levels. Around 80% of all employees participated in the last employee survey, the share of men and woman - where gender was specified - complies approximately with gender proportion in the group (participation rate man around 65%, women around 31% and diverse around 1%).

In addition to the employee survey, we also gauge employee satisfaction every six months through a pulse survey. This helps us obtain a current snapshot of the mood at the company and verify whether the introduced actions have been successful. This lets us make quick adjustments if necessary. The pulse survey in May 2021 saw a 77% response rate among the group.

How can international corporations put sustainability strategies into practice across borders? Deutsche Telekom employs CR managers for the relevant business segments and national companies to reach this goal. They use the CR Manager Network to regularly share best practices and discuss new challenges, thereby jointly promoting essential CR issues. The central Group Corporate Responsibility (GCR) department is responsible for managing the network. In the year 2021, the CR Manager Network encompassed more than 100 CR Manager from 34 subsidiaries based in 20 countries across the globe. 

The participants are regularly invited to virtual meetings and capacity building calls by Group Corporate Responsibility. In 2021, content and likely implications of the EU Green Deal were discussed as well as progress within the #GreenMagenta programs and the new strategic stream "Positive impact on society" defined by the EU segment. Furthermore, the network members could gain insights into issues like Impact measurement and the future of a greener mobility.

Our “IT remarketing” project involves reconditioning our used IT hardware to make it suitable for further use. We continue to maintain our partnership with “AfB gemeinnützige GmbH”, which offers job opportunities to people with disabilities. Within the scope of this partnership, we are giving some of our used IT hardware (e.g. laptops) to the organization for reconditioning and reselling. This will support us to save resources and to create jobs for people with disabilities as well as extend the life cycle of our used hardware.
