Sustainability

We are a member of the Responsible Business Forum

We have been a member of the Responsible Business Forum since 2019. The Forum is an expert organization that is the initiator and partner of key undertakings for Polish CSR. FOB inspires business that changes the world and connects people who change business. It works for sustainable development.

We are in the first place of socially responsible companies

In the 14th edition of the Responsible Companies Ranking in 2020, ING Bank Śląski took 1st place in the general classification, obtaining the maximum number of points and 1st place in the banking, financial and insurance sector.

We have the Golden CSR Leaf

In 2020, we once again received the Polityka's CSR Golden Leaf, as one of the organizations distinguished by activities in the field of sustainable development. We were also appreciated for our commitment to the climate in the area of electromobility.

The Orange Code

Business ethics standards of our employees are based on “ING Values and Behaviours” set out in the Orange Code. Compliance with those principles is one of the fundamental employee obligations.

The Orange Code consists of:

• ING Values (we are honest; we are prudent/we apply common sense; we are responsible)
• ING Behaviours (you take it on and make it happen; you help others to be successful; you are always a step ahead).

The Orange Code is an important element of our corporate culture. It is also applied in many banking processes, e.g. in the employee performance evaluation. Employees together with their supervisors set the actions through which the Orange Code is being implemented. Our values and behaviours are also part of a recruitment process.

Employees can give each other Kudos. Kudos is our way of showing recognition. We use it every day as it is a convenient and good method of thanking others for the behaviours which are consistent with our Orange Code. Since the launch of the application (June 2016), we have given in total 100 thousand Kudos in Poland.

ING Voluntary Services Programme

As part of our ING Voluntary Services Programme, we encourage employees to include financial education and entrepreneurship in the local community projects. The formula of the voluntary services programme is open and anybody can get involved the way they like. Our Bank gives every employee the option of devoting 8 hours of work per year to voluntary activities.

Our volunteers closely cooperate with ING for Children Foundation.
