Role model in health and safety

As a Swedish company, Ericsson has high standards and high requirements when it comes to the workplace and working conditions. Internationally, it has been our policy to create similar conditions as in Sweden, even if local legislation does not require us to do so.
Following this policy, we have created an image as a role model for other companies in many countries, thereby giving a significant contribution to the global development of working conditions and working environments.
We introduced ergonomic office assessments many years ago in order to broaden the view of the working environment from the traditional focus on production facilities to encompassing the entire company. Based on these assessments, we have improved our office environments and reduced the occurrence of work-related health issues for our staff.
