At Ørsted, employees are part of a safe working environment where impacts are identified and managed, including impacts related to physical injuries and well-being of employees. Due to the nature of our industry, we recognize the impact to employees of potential injuries and fatalities, primarily during the construction and operation phases of our assets. Furthermore, we recognize the present impact of work-related stress and anxiety experienced among employees on a global level. Ensuring transparent and fair working conditions are rooted in our employee value proposition, where fair and competitive rewards and employment terms as well as a flexible working culture, are foundational factors. Our flexible working culture is creating additionality within many of the markets where we operate, and particularly in our US and APAC regions, as our global policies go beyond the norm. In 2024, Ørsted navigated a rapidly evolving industry landscape, necessitating organizational adjustments, including redundancies, to maintain our competitive edge. While both satisfaction and motivation levels as well as voluntary turnover remain healthy compared to industry benchmarks, the changes have had a noticeable impact on employee satisfaction and motivation and our voluntary turnover trend. This poses a short-term risk of increased voluntary turnover and lower morale, satisfaction, and heightened stress.
