We strive for integrity and compliance with the principles of business ethics throughout our entire business. Our work is intended to create an open and responsible business culture. We take a zero-tolerance approach to corruption and bribes. Continuous training, interactive discussions and risk assessments help us increase awareness and act responsibly.

Guidance and Compliance

Our business ethics guidelines contain a clear framework for all employees to comply with. The guidelines are available in local languages and all employees are obligated to read and sign our business ethics guidelines. We apply the following principles in order to avoid the risk of bribery:

• Our employees may not offer or accept any types of gifts or benefits, directly or indirectly, to or from a third party if it is not considered to be within the boundaries of generally accepted business practices and applicable laws.
• In case of any doubt, our employees are expected to seek the advice of their immediate supervisor, Group Management or the company’s chief corporation counsel.

Whistle-blower system

All employees are encouraged and expected to report suspected violations to their immediate supervisor, Group Management or the company’s chief corporation counsel. There is also a whistle-blower system that allows employees to anonymously report suspected violations. The function is managed by the Chairman of the Audit Committee
