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.

Flexible working conditions create a positive impact within our own operations. This positive impact relates to our flexible working culture, creating additionality within many markets where we operate and particularly in the US and APAC, as our global standards go beyond the norm in many countries outside of Northern Europe. This is part of our ambition to power and create a working environment where everyone can thrive, perform, and grow.
