Cultural & social commitment

Scholz is a member of many associations in order to be able to contribute its own know-how there and at the same time to always be up to date on issues and requirements of industry partners and customers.

For many years now, Scholz has been supporting the sponsorship programme of the city of Recklinghausen "Every child gets a meal".

The donation is used to compensate payments for meals socially disadvantaged families cannot afford. This ensures that every child, whether at school or daycare, can participate in lunch.

With the study award, the best master's or bachelor's theses of each year are ceremoniously awarded in Recklinghausen's town hall. In addition to outstanding methodological or technical skills, these theses also show a concrete reference to practice. The study award is thus an investment in the future in Vest, in the future of the companies located here and in the future of our employees.

As a member of the Vestische Freundegesellschaft e.V., we promote the dialogue between the university and the business community and are always pleased with the interesting exchange.

People are at the centre of everything we do. We want to offer our employees good working conditions and development opportunities, and ensure that everyone feels comfortable and can express themselves in all their colours. We offer further training, develop new ways of working together and do everything we can to ensure that work-life balance and new work are not just empty words.

The "Rudolf Scholz Stiftung – Menschenhilfe farbenfroh", established by Harold Scholz & Co. GmbH in 2015, is closely linked to the owner family Scholz as an unincorporated foundation and is shaped by the company and management philosophy.

Charitable and social commitment has a long tradition in this family-owned company. For more than 120 years, it has been lived and promoted across all generations until today.
