We firmly believe that these principles are integral to fostering a just transition to renewable energy. Therefore, it is our priority to ensure that adequate management systems are in place to identify, prevent, mitigate, and remedy any potential adverse human rights impacts. In cases where we identify potential adverse human rights impacts, we are committed to promptly and effectively providing and enabling remedies. Our grievance and remediation approach includes addressing any adverse human rights impacts on individuals, workers, and communities that we have caused or contributed to.

At Ørsted, we prioritise and protect the physical, social, and psychological safety of everyone in the workplace. Through our robust health and safety management system, which is fundamental to our operations and to secure a safe system of work, we foster a culture that promotes our employees’ health and safety. All (100 %) of our employees are covered by our health and safety management system. We have established a 'Global policy for quality, health, safety, and environment (QHSE)', setting the standards for how we protect and ensure the well-being of our employees and the sustainability of our operations. The policy covers all our employees and facilities, with accountability resting with our Head of QHSE. We aim to incorporate equality, health, safety, and environment in all our decisions and actions, and we have implemented workplace accident prevention procedures to ensure the safety and well-being of our employees.
