At MS‑Schramberg, human rights are a top priority.
There is zero tolerance for intolerance, discrimination, or child labor within our company.
We are guided by the principles of the United Nations Global Compact in the areas of human rights, labor standards, environmental responsibility, and anti‑corruption.
We also expect our suppliers and business partners to consistently comply with these standards.
The basis for this commitment is our Supplier Code of Conduct, whose implementation we regularly review and monitor.

Employees and the Workplace
Working Conditions, Occupational Safety & Employee Development
We place our employees at the center of everything we do. We value diversity and the individual potential of every person, foster a culture of respect, and actively promote personal responsibility and continuous professional development.
This includes fair, performance‑based compensation and attractive additional benefits.
At the same time, we ensure safe, healthy, and modern workplaces. Our occupational health and safety management system has been certified to DIN ISO 45001:2018 since 2013. In this way, we combine employee development with a safe and sustainable working environment.
Equal Opportunities
At MS Schramberg, there is zero tolerance for discrimination of any kind – whether based on race, origin, gender, religion or beliefs, disability, age, or sexual orientation.
This principle applies to daily interactions among colleagues, our relationships with business partners, as well as to recruitment, promotion, and separation of employees.
Employee development
We respect the diversity and individual value of each employee and provide them with the opportunity to develop their talents, which in turn will contribute to the environment, the further development and success of the company as well as the fostering of a safe and healthy working environment.
Social Commitment – much more than just financial support
Since 2014, MS-Schramberg has been supporting the Wittum School where students aged 6 to 18 who have a developmental disorder, a disability or a similar need for support are taught. From fundraisers to the offer of touring the company and internships, as well as joint baking events or the construction of a barefoot park, we are excited about the many great projects and activities for and with the Wittum School.
Educational partnerships – a real win-win situation
How can adolescents prepare for the demands of the real world and choosing a career path? The best way is by gaining exciting practical experience. At the same time, it is important to us as a business to be in touch with young talents as early as possible. That is why we have started long-term educational partnerships with committed schools from our region.
Leibniz-Gymnasium Rottweil
Following many years of working together, a contractually agreed educational partnership has linked us to the Leibniz-Gymnasium Rottweil since 2016. In addition to job orientation internships for secondary school students, in which they got to work on exciting projects like a buoy for recording environmental data, there were many other opportunities for students to gain valuable experience. For example with experiments relating to magnetism or other projects as part of science and technology classes.
Grundschule Lauterbach
The primary school in Lauterbach participates in the TECHNOlino project – a programme of the Südwestmetall (Southwest Metal) employers' association that promotes science and technology. It is supposed to raise the kids' awareness of the environment as well as technical contexts and natural phenomena. Our educational partnership with the school is characterised by activities that support a career choice early on and in a practice-oriented manner. Through exciting company tours and surprising experiments, the students get to know our apprentices, among other employees. They present their work in an illustrative way and thereby allow the students to experience the fascinating topic of magnetism.
Eschachschule Dunningen
Since 2011, we have been working together with the (technical) secondary school in Dunningen and we are offering students internships on a regular basis to help them choose a career. In addition, we are regularly providing students with information on opportunities and requirements regarding apprenticeships at MS-Schramberg and we are a fixture at their Career Information Day.
What applies to the world of technology and permanent magnets also applies to the areas of sports, education, social and cultural issues: Ambitious goals can best be achieved when working closely with trusted partners. We are supporting various clubs and projects in their valuable work. We are not only backing them but are also assuming responsibility for the positive development of our region.
