Corporate Responsibility
Our values empower responsibility
Caring about corporate responsibility has been part of our culture right from the moment we were founded in 1941. It has also been an integral part of how we do business.
Corporate Strategy & Values
Core Values
Our sense of responsibility is lived by all of our 28,000 team members worldwide
We want to build a company where every team member is valued, grows and does well in their career.
We want to build open, trusted and successful relationships with our customers, partners and suppliers.
We believe in giving back to society and the environment and in a real way – whether that’s helping to build affordable housing, travelling to give disaster relief in person, or just helping to tidy up a neighborhood.
And we want to continue to build on our success and produce more cutting-edge technologies to empower our customers to create safe, productive and awe-inspiring builds.
Our sense of responsibility, embedded deep in our culture, is lived by all of our 28,000 team members worldwide, everyday, everywhere.
Our values – integrity, courage, teamwork, and commitment – define how our teams work together and how they work with our partners based outside our company too.

Hilti North America Gives Back
We take giving back seriously.
Here at Hilti North America, team members are encouraged to give back to our local communities. Field teams across the U.S. and Canada join with office-based employees in rolling up our sleeves and building a better future where we live and work.
We stand behind our words, too. Each team member receives two paid days off annually to volunteer as they see fit, with an organization or cause they’re passionate about.
We provide lots of opportunities to serve, explore and find your place. For example:
- Habitat for Humanity – Put your job on hold for a couple of days to help build houses for people who don’t have a home or the financial ability to own or rent one. You’ll be part of a team that sets the supports, lays the bricks, raises the roof and personally gives the key to the new tenants. In fact, each new class of team members spends one day of orientation using their new Hilti tool knowledge to contribute on a Habitat home
- United Way Day of Caring – Spend the day working in a food bank or animal shelter, delivering Meals on Wheels or tidying up a neighborhood. It could be painting a fence or fixing a playground slide, looking after an elderly person or going into a school to talk to girls about careers in construction.
Other organizations we support through volunteer efforts are food banks, the American Red Cross, American Heart Association, C5 Youth Foundation, City Square, Girl Scouts, Make a Wish, the Salvation Army, SBP. And, that’s just the beginning.
More than just a one-day commitment. At Hilti, giving back is at the heart of who we are.
To make the greatest impact, we focus on education, housing, and community development

Compliance
International Partnerships against Corruption
We participate in key international initiatives against corruption. But we also go above and beyond, requiring our company to consistently counter corruption and bribery and to maintain social and environmental standards.
- Partnering Against Corruption
In 2004 Hilti signed the Partnering Against Corruption Initiative at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. This aims to introduce anti-corruption measures in the construction industry, worldwide. In doing so we underscore that Hilti has a zero-tolerance policy towards bribery. - UN Global Compact
In 2006 Hilti joined the UN Global Compact, which is also clearly aimed against corruption. This global agreement, under the patronage of the United Nations, obliges companies to maintain social and ecological standards.
Code of Conduct for Employees
We require all our team members to always act within the law and within our own corporate guidelines. Our Code of Conduct for team members lays out how we work and is at the heart of how we do business. All our team members are trained to understand compliance.
Code of Conduct for Suppliers
We contractually require our suppliers to maintain fundamental requirements in the areas of human rights, labor rights, work safety and environmental protection and that they pledge to abstain from corruption. These standards are binding even if applicable national or international laws call for more lenient standards. We monitor our suppliers via various monitoring instruments such as audits.
