01 Introduction and strategy 02 Measuring and managing sustainability 03 Climate change related disclosure 04 Strengthening our foundation 05 Our universal principles 01.6 Our social approach Our ambition Our roots in insurance make us naturally focused on the social aspect of sustainability. Through the collective pooling and diversification of risk mitigates the impact that events can have on individuals, families, businesses and organizations. By mitigating risk and providing financial security, insurance becomes a prerequisite for sustainable social or economic activities like owning or renting a home, pursuing leisure activities or running a business. Through our core business of providing risk protection and investing funds for the long-term, we help lives, businesses and society to evolve by being more resilient. Our purpose and business experience led us to prioritize SDG 8, Decent Work and Economic growth, in our social approach with a particular focus on education and employability. Our work to support societies (SDG 8) and on climate (SDG 13) is linked and mutually enhances our positive impact. € 14.0 bn Paid in wages by Allianz in 2022 (2021: € 13.3 bn) € 19.5 bn Total tax contribution in 2022 (2021: € 17.9 bn) 45.2 Average training hours per employee contributed by Allianz in 2022 (2021: 34.7) Our social strategy Through our social strategy, we deliver to customers, employees and society: 1.
