For Daimler, compliance, integrity and legal responsibility are inseparable from our daily business activities.

Compliance & Integrity.

We are convinced: Only those who act ethically and legally responsibly will remain successful in the long term. Mercedes-Benz attaches great importance to integrity and compliance. Compliance is an indispensable part of our daily business and is firmly anchored in our corporate culture.

We expect our employees to carry out their work in accordance with applicable laws, regulations, voluntary commitments and our Integrity Code. Integrity forms the foundation for our business activities and gives us guidance. When it comes to difficult decisions, it is our responsibility to align them with the right premises. For us, this includes not only complying with internal and external rules, but also following our corporate principles in our own actions.
