Our 'Global human rights policy' aligns with the UN Guiding Principles on Business & Human Rights (UNGPs), the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises, the International Bill of Human Rights, and the International Labour Organisation’s (ILO) Declaration on Fundamental Principles & Rights at Work.

We have adopted a 'Global diversity and inclusion policy' which emphasises equal opportunities for all employees at Ørsted. We specifically call out identities such as ethnic background, race, religion, age, gender, disability, sexual orientation, outlook, or social status because these groups have been historically marginalised or disadvantaged (protected characteristics).
