Today's German Diversity Day at Rheinmetall is also under the motto "Showing the flag for diversity". This is the tenth time that the Diversity Charter has initiated the German Diversity Day. As a signatory of the Diversity Charter, Rheinmetall has been committed to equal opportunities and appreciation in the workplace since 2017. Today, Rheinmetall is taking a special look at the issue of unconscious bias. An online training course answers questions on possibilities for change and on how to deal with the issue personally. Chief Human Resources Officer Peter Sebastian Krause engages in a direct exchange with employees on the topic of diversity during an online Diversity Talk. As part of the Global Diversity Challenge - a Group-wide photo competition - employees had the opportunity to discuss team-typical motifs and creatively depict the diversity in their teams. #rheinmetall #teams #diversity #success
Rheinmetall has received several major orders from a NATO customer to supply components for force protection equipment. The orders are worth a total of nearly €250 million gross. Delivery of the components is expected to start in 2023 and be complete by 2025. “The armed forces of our country and those of our partner nations rely on our products to protect those who defend our right to live in peace, freedom, and security,” said Armin Papperger, CEO of Rheinmetall. “We have made it our mission to provide our men and women in uniform with the best possible equipment, giving them a vital edge when deployed in harm’s way and helping to ensure that they get home safely. Aware of what is at stake, our staff give their best every day.” Rheinmetall's comprehensive expertise in force protection technologies ranges from individual passive ballistic solutions such as hard ballistic inserts for protective vests to state-of-the-art stand-off active protection systems for armoured fighting vehicles.
