Environmental and Climate Policy

At Alex Andersen, we actively work to reduce our environmental impact, particularly CO2 emissions from our fleet of trucks. By optimizing driving patterns and providing driver training, we aim to minimize empty mileage and energy consumption. We use biogas trucks and install solar panels on both vehicles and buildings as part of our sustainability efforts. Management continuously prioritizes improvements in environmental impact, focusing on technological advancements and infrastructure.

Social and Employee Relations

At Alex Andersen, we emphasize a healthy working environment and employee well-being through accident prevention and close dialogue with our staff. We use modern communication systems and have clear policies for safety and behavior. Our focus on workplace safety is anchored in a code of conduct, and we continuously work to reduce absenteeism and work-related injuries. Management adjusts policies in line with changing societal conditions to ensure an attractive workplace.

Human Rights Policy

At Alex Andersen, we assess the risk of human rights violations in our operations in the EU and Scandinavia as low. HR conducts regular assessments to ensure human rights are respected and that we comply with local laws and agreements. We focus on improving the working environment through employee satisfaction surveys and a health and safety committee. Additionally, a whistleblower system has been established to safeguard employees' rights and well-being. Management sees no significant risk of human rights violations in the countries where the company operates.

Anti-Corruption and Anti-Bribery Policy

At Alex Andersen, we place great importance on integrity, honesty, and transparency in all business dealings and strongly oppose corruption and bribery. Employees and partners are expected to act ethically, and internal guidelines are in place to prevent corruption. These guidelines are available on the intranet, and any suspicion of breaches can be reported to HR, management, or via the company's whistleblower system. The company operates in low-corruption countries, and significant agreements require management approval.

We prioritize responsible and ethical data handling in compliance with applicable laws. Internal policies ensure that only necessary data is accessible to employees, customers, and suppliers. Data access is regularly reviewed, and employee data is restricted to authorized personnel only. The company does not use artificial intelligence for data processing and continuously updates its policies to ensure compliance with legal and technological developments.
