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 has implemented several policies for managing material impacts related to its own workforce, including employment practices aligned with human and labor rights principles, health and safety policies, and a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion policy. Actions are determined based on international and local standards, internal policies, and employee engagement processes. The effectiveness of actions is evaluated through assessments and data analysis, with continuous assessments to address emerging issues. Targets are set for managing impacts, and progress is measured using baseline data and employee engagement surveys.
