[01/03/2025] - The Act on Limited Liability Companies (GmbHG) stipulates that the Supervisory Board of Daimler Buses GmbH shall determine target figures for the proportion of women of the Supervisory Board and in management positions and deadlines for their achievement. For its part, the Management of Daimler Buses GmbH must set such target figures and deadlines for the two senior management levels subordinate to it.

Proportion of women on the Supervisory Board
In fulfillment of this legal obligation, on November 24, 2020, the Supervisory Board of Daimler Buses GmbH has adopted a resolution with regard to its own composition and set a target for the proportion of women on the Supervisory Board of 16.7% and a deadline of December 31, 2024 for achieving this goal. As of December 31, 2024, the proportion of women on the Supervisory Board of Daimler Buses GmbH was 25.0%.

Proportion of women in the Management
