The purpose of the foundation is to provide for the employees of the company, its former and currently economically or financially closely related companies, their relatives and their survivors, as well as pensioners, against the economic consequences of old age, disability and death. This purpose can be fulfilled, in particular, by providing voluntary additional benefits to the regulatory pension benefits in the event of old age, disability and death; and by providing voluntary purchase benefits for the regulatory pension of employees. Furthermore, the foundation aims to support employees and their survivors in cases of need, such as illness, accident, disability or unemployment. The foundation may also provide benefits to other tax-exempt pension institutions that exist for the benefit of the beneficiaries in order to finance contributions and insurance premiums.
