Vestas has established Global and Regional Compliance Programmes which outline how Vestas works with Anti-Bribery & Corruption (ABC) inspired by the six principles in the UK Bribery Act 2010. The programmes are comprised of five pillars: 'Programme Governance,' 'Learning & Awareness' and 'Culture & Behaviour' which aim at preventing misconduct while 'Monitoring & Audit' and 'EthicsLine' are used to prevent, detect and manage misconduct.

Our Global and Regional Compliance Programmes serve as our training policy for business conduct and relate to our impact on corruption and bribery (including anti-bribery). Our Global and Regional Compliance Programmes are updated annually. The scope of the programmes is global and regional in nature covering all of Vestas’ own workforce. The target audience is defined through a risk-based approach linked to the global compliance survey and EthicsLine cases. The current functions determined to be most at risk for bribery and corruption are office employees and service technicians due to the nature of their functions. The fundamental training is conducted as part of the onboarding process and based on the survey and EthicsLine cases. Additional training is performed on a yearly basis, covering areas relevant for Vestas.
