Our sustainability strategy is a core part of our work and embedded across the company. The results of our efforts are annually presented in our Corporate Responsibility (CR) Report, plus in other standardized documents. This section holds information on how we act on reporting standards, environmental impact assessment of our carbon footprint, and an archive of all our sustainability reports since 2001.

Reliable and transparent assessments

We utilize the UN Global Compact steps to support the global goals, the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) to assess the environmental impact from our activities, and the UN Guiding Principles for Business and Human Rights Reporting Framework to advance human rights in business.
