Global Compact

Sustainable and responsible corporate governance – worldwide.

CHT has been a signatory of the UN Global Compact since mid-2016. We see this commitment as a great opportunity to underpin our claims to sustainable, responsible corporate governance and to develop these further in the long term.


Exchanging and sharing experience in the network will broaden our perspective in the future and sharpen our focus, but will also optimise our measures and contribute to fully exploit our potential. By sharing information and experience with other companies we also have the possibility of finding additional activity fields for the CHT Group and expanding our business relations. The CHT Group is committed to the 10 principles of the United Nations Global Compact and to responsible corporate governance with integrity.
