我們的目標以及2021年目標實現成果

For us, business success tomorrow means creating value for the environment, society and business. That is why we pursue ambitious targets along our entire value chain. We report transparently on target achievement so that our stakeholders can track our progress.

Our objective is profitable growth: We want to grow sales volumes faster than global chemical production, further increase our profitability, achieve a return on capital employed (ROCE) considerably above the cost of capital percentage and increase the dividend per share every year based on a strong free cash flow.

商業上的成功代表著為環境、社會和商業創造價值。我們在整個價值鏈中已設定了積極的全球目標，並將這些成果資訊透明化，以便讓我們的客戶、投資者、員工和其他利益相關者可以了解我們的進度。

In addition to these financial targets, we have set ourselves broad sustainability targets. We want to significantly reduce our CO₂ emissions in the coming years and align our product portfolio even more strongly with climate protection and the circular economy. To achieve this, we are updating the methodology used to assess our product portfolio against defined sustainability criteria and will apply it for the first time in 2023. We are also working to strengthen sustainability in our supply chains and use resources responsibly.

We want to further improve safety in production. Furthermore, we aim to promote diversity within the company and create a working environment in which our employees feel that they can thrive and perform at their best.

The objective of these targets is to steer our business into a more sustainable future, and at the same time, contribute to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We are focusing here on issues that we as a company can influence – especially SDG 2 (Zero hunger), SDG 5 (Gender equality), SDG 6 (Clean water and sanitation), SDG 7 (Affordable and clean energy), SDG 8 (Decent work and economic growth), SDG 12 (Responsible consumption and production) and SDG 13 (Climate action).

Most important KPIs

BASF has set itself ambitious targets along the value chain. Two of these indicators are particularly important:

Return on capital employed (ROCE)
Absolute CO₂ emissions

As our most important key performance indicators (KPIs), these two metrics are the main indicators used to steer the BASF Group. We also use ROCE for employee incentivization throughout the Group. The achievement of climate protection targets also influences the compensation of members of the Board of Executive Directors and senior executives.

我們追求廣泛的永續發展目標。因此，我們在2021年²大幅提高二氧化碳減排目標。我們加強關注產品組合的永續發展表現，並將在2022年³更新我們的投資組合指導目標。我們也努力加強供應鏈的永續發展績效，並負責任地使用資源。我們希望進一步提升生產安全。同時，我們也在公司內部推動多元化，創造一個員工可以成長、並保持最佳狀態的工作環境。

設立這些目標旨在把我們的業務導向永續發展的未來，同時能為聯合國的永續發展目標(SDG)有所貢獻。做為企業，我們專注於可以有重大貢獻的議題，例如氣候保護、永續消費和生產以及對抗饑餓

我們希望達到高於市場平均水準的成長，進而獲得經濟上的成功與盈利。此外，我們希望為現今最迫切的挑戰提供解決方案。為了因應氣候變遷和全球暖化，我們已決定在增加產量的同時，將生產基地的溫室氣體排放總量和能源購買量維持在2018年的基準。換句話說，我們將溫室氣體排放與企業的有機成長分開。我們還為人類和環境安全、永續產品組合、負責任的採購、水資源的永續管理、員工以及發展兼容並蓄的企業文化制定了目標。

這些目標的目的是引領我們的業務邁向永續發展的未來，同時為聯合國永續發展目標（SDG）做出貢獻¹。我們專注於我們可以做出重大貢獻的議題，如: 氣候保護、消費和生產的永續性以及對抗飢餓。
