At GN, we utilize robust internal processes to monitor key aspects of product safety, regulatory compliance, and risk management. Our overarching ambition is to maintain compliance with regulatory requirements, while proactively mitigating risks associated with product safety.

Several product safety related initiatives were implemented in GN during 2024:

• GN performs and documents training and have continuous education programs for staff to stay informed of product safety best practices and regulatory changes. During 2024, we conducted training on the updated standard operating procedures in the Quality Management System. Specifically, GN’s hearing employees received training in Quality Methods and Cyber Security.
