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.

The overall accountability for the People Matter survey, Ørsted IN networks, and HR business partners’ engagement rests with the Chief HR Officer. In regard to engagement via our formal representation bodies, such as works councils, it depends on the specific country in scope with whom the operational responsibility rests. However, in general, this responsibility rests with our Chief HR Officer together with the country manager of the respective country. For other representative bodies, such as occupational health and safety representatives, the operational responsibility rests with our Head of QHSE.
