What makes us different Our good reputation for fact-orientation and political independence now precedes us. Many decision-makers rely on our facts and figures. Our results help determine how the economy, society, and politics develop. We see this relevance as a great privilege – and equally, as a great responsibility. We also want to live up to this responsibility as an employer. For this reason, the following principles are not just words for us, but everyday life. How we work together Workmanship and independence Substance and quality are particularly important to us. For our projects this means: We conduct careful analysis, produce durable and reliable results, and communicate them clearly and com-prehensibly. We are not committed to any ideological orientation or school of thought. With every request we have the freedom to consider whether we accept the mandate. Of course, only when we can guarantee our quality standards and when the results can be recognised by experts and the public. For us, transparency is also part of a credible and serious way of working: Each analysis is clearly labelled with who commissioned it, and which assumptions and methods were used. Read Prognos brochure (in German) True interdisciplinarity and open doors We at Prognos are a team – closely networked across nine locations, excellently staffed with over 200 experts from a wide range of scientific disciplines, from the social, economic, and natural sciences. And: Here, everyone knows everyone, some of them for many years. Therefore, we know exactly who to consult for which project. One of our great strengths lies in personal exchange: Continuous knowledge transfer, changes of perspective, and an open-door policy, are what char-acterise our corporate culture. Not only because it makes technical sense but also because it creates great personal satisfaction. Sustainability in everyday work This topic is not only anchored in the range of services we offer our clients. In the company itself – and beyond – we are also committed to an environmentally conscious (working) day-to-day life across all locations. Forward-looking, future-based actions as well as social and ecological commitment, are essential components of our corporate responsibility to our employees and our clients. In addition to an employee-oriented human resources policy, our corporate social responsibility policy primarily includes the protection of the climate and the environment. For us, the careful use of natural resources and a serious commitment on the ground are part of this responsibility. As a company committed to continuous learning, we know that the implementation of our sustainability guidelines is a continuous process and always a work in progress. Tolerance, diversity & inclusion We see equal opportunities as the basis of our daily work, our cooperation, and our actions. An inclusive corporate culture is just as important to us as an openness to change and new perspectives. In order to enable professional participation regardless of origin, gender identity, religion, skin colour, or physical characteristics, we strive every single day to reflect on our own actions and to break down potential barriers. This topic is supported by our AGG representatives (General Equal Treatment Act) and our women and equal opportunities representatives.

Previous Next Our path to climate neutrality Prognos AG aims to become climate-neutral by 2035. Our sustainability team has identified the CO2 emissions we currently produce. As a result, measures are continuously being developed to avoid, reduce, or compensate when there is no other option. Principle: Avoid before reducing, reduce before compensating Almost 50 percent of our emissions are in areas that can be avoided or reduced directly. For the remaining emissions, we are partly dependent on external service providers and, in future, climate-neutral supply chains. Business trips We try to avoid business trips by plane. Instead, we travel short distances by train and for longer journeys arrive in advance and stay overnight. We also provide railcards and Deutschland job tickets to our colleagues. Heating We are making our colleagues aware of how to use heating efficiently. Where possible, intelligent thermostats are used. Internal and external events We plan ahead, which allows for climate-friendly travel or vegetarian meals at our events. Digital meetings Our locations have been equipped with high-quality conference systems. A step toward conducting CO2-neutral events. Electricity Where our rental agreements permit, we have switched our electricity supply to green electricity providers. Our sustainability initiatives make a difference We value climate-friendly thinking and action by all. We create open doors, be it for individual suggestions or for employee initiatives. The Prognos Nachhaltigkeitskreis (sustainability circle) has been instrumental in initiating and supporting our clear commitment to concrete goals as well as the measures. Offsetting Our offset payments are made annually. Our self-set CO2 price is at least at the level of the current Fuel Emissions Trading Act, and in the medium term on a path of up to 180 €/t in the target year. Behind the scenes Here, our employees tell us how our values are experienced in our daily work. Take a look Feel free to contact us.
