15 years of security: Stadtwerke Amberg and IFG celebrate success story
On July 10, 2025, a very special day for the Amberg Stadtwerke and IFG GmbH Institute for Health and Management is. Both institutions celebrate the 15th anniversary of their successful cooperation. "A strong foundation of trust and a common vision for the security of our employees makes us strong," emphasizes Managing Director Frank Backowies of Stadtwerke Amberg. This partnership, which started in 2010 with an initially advisory activity in the field of occupational safety, has steadily developed since then.
As early as 2012, the cooperation to the field of occupational medicine and the role of the company doctor was expanded. In recent years, numerous health actions have been launched to promote the well -being of employees. A highlight was the "Azubifit" seminar, which was aimed specifically at trainees and treated topics such as movement, nutrition and stress.
versatile jobs and new challenges
The Stadtwerke Amberg, a 100%subsidiary of the city of Amberg, are proud of their wide range of workplaces - from office to warehouse, construction sites and the waterworks. Particularly noteworthy are the new civil engineering work, which, as IFG notes, notes Christian Weigl, are associated with a high risk potential. This aspect once again shows how important it is to continuously improve security and health standards.
For several years, both partners have been sharing a location in Sulzbach-Rosenberg. Company meetings and training courses on health promotion are held there in particular in the modern premises of the energy competence center on Amberger Marktplatz. At the celebrations for the anniversary, the need to always invest in the further development of security and health in the workplace was emphasized.
sustainability and security in focus
With sales of EUR 152.1 million in the 2023 financial year, it can be seen that the Amberg Stadtwerke act as an important provider in the region. They supply tariff, commercial and industrial customers with electricity, natural gas, heat and drinking water and operate two drinking water extraction areas. Safety security is secured by regular investments and well-trained employees in maintenance and repair services.
Another core topic of municipal utilities is environmental and energy management. Your energy management system according to ISO 50001 has been certified since 2015, and since 2017 the same applies to the environmental management system according to ISO 14001: 2015. This proves the commitment of the municipal utilities for sustainable management and the protection of natural resources.
Occupational safety is also a top priority within the framework of legal requirements. The Occupational Health and Safety Act obliges employers to assess health risks and implement corresponding protective measures. Stadtwerke Amberg and IFG GmbH meet these requirements by regularly training and instructing their employees so that they can recognize and react appropriately in everyday work. This is particularly important because digital change brings new challenges in the field of occupational safety, as the Federal Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs emphasized.
The cooperation between Stadtwerke Amberg and IFG GmbH is a shining example of how companies can take responsibility - for their employees and for society. To the next 15 years!
