Fair Money & Economic Opportunity
0
Bilfinger SE is an engineering and services company, not a financial institution.
1
The provided articles and company description do not contain any evidence that the company offers lending, deposit services, or any other financial products or services to consumers or businesses. Therefore, all KPIs related to 'Fair Money & Economic Opportunity' are not applicable, as the company's core business lies outside the scope of financial services.
Fair Pay & Worker Respect
0
No specific, quantitative data points were provided in the articles to assess the company against the defined KPIs for Fair Pay & Worker Respect. The articles contain general statements about compliance, goals, policies, and reporting activities, but lack the concrete numbers, percentages, or rates required by the rubric's thresholds for living wage coverage, CEO median pay ratio, collective bargaining share, safety incident rate, pay equity ratio, worker engagement score, turnover rate, labor violation incidents, insecure contract share, or health insurance coverage.
