Contributing to the communities in which we live and work are becoming more and more important in today’s world. Hilti recognizes this need and encourages its team members’ social commitment through the corporate volunteering program Engaged Beyond Business (EBB). One of our recent volunteers shares about his exciting experience about his EBB trip to Bosnia and Hercegovina.

As part of Hilti’s corporate volunteering program Engaged Beyond Business, our colleagues are involved in social and environmental initiatives that go beyond their daily work. Numerous local projects are running all over the world, led by the respective Hilti organization. In addition, the Hilti Foundation offers some international initiatives.

For decades, Hilti team members have shown great compassion by contributing to the communities they live and work in. As a socially responsible company, Hilti wants to support and encourage team members’ social commitment through the Engaged Beyond Business corporate volunteering program. The program was founded in 2020 together with the Hilti Foundation. The goal is clear: to provide every single Hilti team member worldwide with opportunities to participate in social initiatives beyond business.

With Engaged Beyond Business (EBB), Hilti’s employee engagement program, every region has amazing local projects running. Today, we want to focus on Bea’s work: The international EBB projects “building houses”. Back in 2014, the Hilti Foundation accidentally learned about a house building project in Bosnia. "Three months later, we actually went down there with a group of apprentices from Hilti Plant 4 in Austria and after one week we had built two houses", recalls Bea.

The Hilti Group is committed to positively impacting social challenges around the world. In addition to supporting the Hilti Foundation’s work, Hilti also encourages its employees to participate in the corporate volunteering program Engaged Beyond Business.
