We are committed to providing a safe and healthy working environment for all of our employees. Our policies, actions and targets address our IRO on health and safety, specifically covering the negative impact as a result of work-related accidents at our major manufacturing sites. We do not have a global health and safety policy, however all GN’s manufacturing sites have locally anchored health and safety (H&S) groups and/or more global-oriented Health, Safety, & Environment (HSE) committees.

GN provides channels for raising concerns, including potential human rights impacts, and has established internal procedures for handling cases to ensure remedy for its employees. The GN Alertline, a whistleblower hotline, is accessible for reporting concerns and business ethics misconduct. All investigations are handled by designated employees, and communication campaigns are conducted to raise awareness about the GN Alertline. Reported cases are thoroughly investigated, ensuring a fair outcome after investigation.
