Zurich wants to become one of the most sustainable companies. Not just in Switzerland, but worldwide. The brochure “Sustainability at Zurich Switzerland” gives you an overview of our commitment.
With the Z Zurich Foundation, we finance the Swiss Ombudsman for Children's Rights and are thus enabling the expansion of counseling to all cantons and language regions of Switzerland.
We promote the health of the Swiss population: With 43 exercises each, the 500 keep-fit trails form the largest free outdoor fitness center in Switzerland - since 1968.
We offer our employees the opportunity to use one work day per year for voluntary community work.
Whether cooking in Pastor Siebers Sunestube, an assignment with proNatura in a nature reserve or as a weather researcher in school - every commitment is worthwhile twice over:
the Z Zurich Foundation makes a contribution for each accomplished Community Day, which we can donate to a charitable organization.
Our commitment to the environment
Zurich Natural Hazard Radar
The Zurich Natural Hazard Radar provides a sound site analysis for every property in Switzerland. And tips on how they can be protected against natural hazards. This pays off, as every franc invested saves up to 10 francs in consequential costs.
The interactive Zurich exhibition "Change the Picture" in the Umwelt Arena Spreitenbach reveals the effects of climate change to over 120,000 visitors per year. And what every individual can do to combat it. (in german)
Zurich is supporting the "Wetterfroscher" educational program developed by Meteotest: Wetterfroscher visits over 30 elementary school classes each year alongside an expert. They use fun and games to show the schoolchildren how we all endanger nature, but also how we can protect it. (in german)
