The policy explicitly highlights our dedication to ensuring freedom of association, the right to collective bargaining, the elimination of forced, trafficked, or compulsory labour, the effective abolition of child labour, and the elimination of discrimination in employment and occupation, among other critical issues.

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.
