Adler Group sees diversity in its workforce as a strength. This means a corporate culture characterised, among other things, by equal opportunities, tolerance, equal and fair treatment of all employees and appreciation for different ways of thinking, assessments and judgements. The guiding principle is equality for all employees in terms of gender, age, sexual orientation and identity, race, nationality, ethnic origin or world view.

Adler Group employs people of 31 different nationalities with different educational qualifications and CVs. The Company's talent management programme also takes diversity criteria into account when selecting potential candidates and promotes diversity within the Company at all levels. Diversity in the workplace is reflected in numerous key figures (see charts of "Diversity in the workplace").

Adler Group also promotes inclusion implementing all relevant specific regulations. Inclusion is practised and individual needs are also addressed. The percentage of people with disabilities among employees, subject to legal restrictions on data collection, was 4 per cent in 2024.

To underline its commitment to diversity and inclusion, Adler Group has signed the "Diversity Charter", a voluntary commitment launched by German industry in 2006 to promote a prejudice-free working environment. Signatories thus document their intention to create and promote equal opportunities for all employees in the Company.

The basic principles and beliefs underlying all endeavours relating to diversity have been codified and made public. The relevant guidelines can be found on Adler Group website at https://www.adler Group-group.com/investor-relations/corporate governance/compliance-and-guidelines.

In 2024, no incidents of discrimination, including harassment have been reported to the Company.
