BUSINESS ETHICS
K.W. Bruun's Business Ethics are deeply anchored in K.W. Bruun's core values.
Business Ethics is the group's guideline for accountability and sound business ethics. It helps us ensure compliance across all companies, comply with legislation, and guide us in making good, valuable decisions, that create values for employees, for the group, for customers, business partners and society.
SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
The group's report on corporate social responsibility is an integral part of our business and aims to ensure a high level of accountability in our activities with employees, customers, business partners and society in general.
We want to take active social responsibility through responsible investment, ownership and corporate governance that complies with the UN Global Compact principles on labour rights, human rights, environment, and anti-corruption. In so doing, K.W. Bruun contributes to a number of the UN's 17 Sustainable Development Goals. In our Social Respnsibility Report we have selected eight goals, that we believe are the ones we have the greatest opportunity to influence positively.
