We work to safeguard responsibility and good relationships in our business and in our value chains. In our business practices, we impact the community and environment around us. It is important for us that this is a positive impact.
Policy for sustainable business practices
We respect the rights of the people who work in our own enterprise and in our value chains, contribute to the appropriate use of resources and limit negative impacts on the environment.
Ethical guidelines
We respect, support and promote human rights as formulated in the UN’s fundamental Declaration of Human Rights and the International Labor Organization's (ILO's) core conventions.
Transparency Act
The purpose of the Transparency Act, to promote businesses’ respect for human rights and proper working conditions, is rooted in our procedures and ethical guidelines.
UN’s SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS
Through our environment-focused work, we take responsibility for reducing our impact on the external environment and climate change. Our environmental work is incorporated into daily operations and is a natural part of our culture.
All of our employees are bound by our environmental policies. Our company evaluates its relationship with and its impact on the environment, and incorporates environmental work in its management systems. This means that environmental and climate issues are emphasised in the ongoing development of our business and services.
We focus on reducing our environmental impact. We actively encourage our customers, cooperating partners and suppliers to take actions and choices that promote environmental work. We have an effective environment management system. This incorporates an obligation to continually improve and uphold public authority requirements and our own standards.
How do we believe this is done?
- Compliance with applicable laws and regulations
- Operation with the least possible environmental impact
- Impose environmental standards on cooperating partners and suppliers
- Information and training of our employees
- Including environmental considerations in the selection of raw materials and manufacturing processes
