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.

The cut-off date for reporting on employee headcount is December 31, 2024. Information about gender is recorded in GN’s HR management system, Workday, where we host our total global workforce and other employee master data. Employee headcount is disclosed as 'Not reported' when employees do not provide gender information during the onboarding process. Category 'Other' refers to employees who identify themselves as non-binary.
