Training

We acknowledge that questions may arise on appropriate ethical business conduct. To avoid any doubt on how we want our employees to act, we put a lot of effort into communicating our ethics standards and training our employees. This is to ensure that the rules are known at all times.

Online control system

Once a year our employees are asked to re-read our ethics guide and sign off on their compliance with the guidelines. To make the guidelines easy to relate to we have included real life dilemmas.

E-learning

We have introduced e-learning courses within anti-corruption and competition compliance targeted at our top management, including our general managers, senior vice presidents and executive management.

Workshops

We supplement e-learning courses with regular face-to-face workshops for selected employee groups or sites. Both employees and managers attend the workshops. This training session allows diving into different dilemma scenarios as well as discussions on any questions employees may have.
