GN has taken several actions in response to potential negative impacts on a case-by-case basis. Depending on the nature of the impact, actions are determined based on international and local standards and regulations, internal policies, and input from employee engagement processes. GN ensures adequate resource allocation for addressing each material impact with clearly defined roles and responsibilities. Execution of actions is anchored in GN’s existing governance structures, which defines roles and responsibilities, and ensures sufficient resource allocation. To evaluate effectiveness of actions implemented, GN conducts assessment and collects the necessary data for analysis. The results are reviewed by senior management to identify areas that require attention, allowing for necessary amendments to be made where needed. For longer term initiatives, GN performs continuous assessments to address any emerging issues promptly.

At GN, our commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) is foundational to our values and operations. Our global DEI policy outlines our beliefs, aspirations, and targets, ensuring accountability at the highest levels, including our Executive Leadership Team (ELT). This policy is aimed at addressing the identified material potential negative impact related to the negative impact on the well-being of employees as a consequence of lack of diversity and applies across all Group companies and is accessible to all employees. GN is dedicated to regularly reviewing and updating our DEI policies to reflect evolving best practices. We will measure our progress against established targets and ensure accountability at all levels of the organization.
