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.

To set targets, GN gathers baseline data on the current performance of the material impacts identified. GN also uses data available from employee engagement for setting and monitoring target performance. This includes GN’s biannual employee engagement survey, employee resource groups and representatives, and other channels available for raising concerns. Based on the target performance and recommendations from management reviews and employee engagement, GN continuously identifies lessons learnt and improvements.
