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.

Employees at all times engage with their direct manager, HR business partner, or contact GN’s global Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion team, or join employee-led employee resource groups. GN also conducts webinars, communication, and awareness campaigns on topics such as mental health, neurodiversity, and health and safety. Additionally, GN has established employee resource groups that aim to gain insights into the perspectives of marginalized employees. This includes a global network of female professionals in GN, a global network for LGBT+ colleagues and allies, and a network for black colleagues and supportive allies across the company.
