Has the undertaking ensured that all individuals within its own workforce who may experience material impacts are encompassed within the scope of disclosure as per ESRS 2 SBM-3? Furthermore, does the undertaking provide information on whether any material negative impacts are either widespread or systemic in the operational contexts, such as instances of child labor or forced labor in specific non-EU regions, or are they related to individual incidents like industrial accidents or oil spills?

Question

Accepted Answer

During 2024, Vestas did not identify any areas with operations at significant risk of incidents of child labor. The Vestas Employee Code of Conduct (the Code) sets out the behavioural expectations Vestas has to the members of its own workforce globally. The Code sets the standards and commitments to ensure a safe and ethical workplace, respecting the human rights of all stakeholders engaged, to create a workplace free from discrimination and to respect human rights. The Code therefore governs Vestas’ approach to managing S1 related IROs under working conditions, health and safety, equal opportunities as well as the G1 IROs related to political engagement, see G1-5 page 127.
