Our compliance reports
Explore reports detailing our compliance to the United Nations (UN) global compact, the European Union (EU) task force for climate-related financial disclosures and reporting requirements on modern slavery.
What is the UN Global Compact?
The United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) is based on voluntary CEO commitments. It's the world’s largest corporate sustainability initiative. The Compact supports companies to do business in alignment with the Compact’s Ten Principles. It also helps them act on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs).
Our commitment to the UN Global Compact
We’ve been part of the UNGC since 2001. In 2011 we were one of only 55 inaugural members of Global Compact LEAD. This is a platform for UNGC participants who want to take their ESG performance to the next level.
We support the UNGC’s work on key sustainability topics and participate in UNGC local networks in Denmark, Brazil, USA, China and India.
Our communication on progress
To demonstrate progress made against the Ten Principles, participating UNGC companies publish an annual Communication on Progress (COP). Our Annual Reports along with the files below serve as our COP. In 2021, we participated in the UNGC pilot to communicate progress annually via an online self-assessment.
Moving forward, we will report progress on their website. See our profile on the UNGC website for more information.
