What We Do Today
Our Current Operations
Sustainability Management
We have identified the need for more systematic management and development of sustainability, and both Norex’s board and senior management are committed to this. Corporate responsibility is important for our business, and with our level of ambition set high, we must pay greater attention to strategy, goal-setting, resourcing, actions, and ultimately the results and impacts of our sustainability work. We want to ensure that sustainability does not remain isolated, disconnected from the rest of our business, but is adequately integrated from strategic planning to daily operations.
Code of Conduct
We have updated our Code of Conduct, which guides and supports all of our daily work and decision-making.
This document addresses the ethics of our operations, establishing ground rules for:
- behavior
- responsibilities
- equality and fairness
- a healthy work environment
- occupational safety
- stakeholder collaboration
- prevention of discrimination and harassment
- conflict prevention and management
The Code of Conduct, like Norex’s values, has been defined, developed, and approved together with our entire staff. All our employees participated in defining our Code of Conduct, first in a full-day workshop, then reviewed and commented on the final product, and finally each had the opportunity to participate in training on the principles.
