Social responsibility

People Are at the Heart of Our Sustainability Work

Innoflame’s social responsibility extends to our own employees, the people working throughout our supply chain, and the communities affected by our operations.

We are committed to promoting a safe, inclusive and healthy working environment within our own organisation while ensuring that human rights, fair working conditions and ethical business practices are respected throughout our supply chain.

Our social responsibility work focuses particularly on employee well-being, workplace safety, competence development, respect for human rights and a responsible supply chain.

Our People Are Our Most Important Asset

Our vision is to be the most attractive partner for our customers and employer of choice for talented professionals in the Nordic countries. To realize this vision, we invest in Innoflame’s unique culture, workplace safety, and employee development.

Our ISO 45001 certified occupational health and safety system ensures that work safety is systematically considered in all our operations. The certificate demonstrates our commitment to the continuous development of a safe working environment.

We support employee well-being through benefits such as exercise and cultural activities, as well as occupational work ability insurance.

We conduct an extensive employee satisfaction survey annually and, in addition, a more condensed pulse survey a couple of times a year. Based on their results, we identify development areas and create an action plan for the continuous development of the work community.

Responsibility Extends to the Supply Chain

Innoflame collaborates only with suppliers who meet certain sustainability-related criteria. We naturally require suppliers to comply with laws and regulations. In addition to legal compliance, we require our suppliers to meet a range of sustainability and ethical standards.

People
Innoflame requires suppliers to respect human rights. The supplier must, among other things, commit to regulations prohibiting human trafficking, ensure that child labor is not used, treat people respectfully, value diversity, promote equal opportunities for all people, and foster an inclusive and ethical corporate culture.

Employees and job applicants must be offered equal opportunities to work without discrimination. In addition, employees must be provided with a work environment free from physical, psychological, or verbal harassment or any other offensive behavior.

Compensation
The supplier must pay its employees at least the minimum wage required by local legislation and provide them with the benefits prescribed by law. In addition to regular working hours’ pay, employees must be paid legally defined compensation for overtime.

Social Dialogue
The supplier must respect the right of workers to gather freely and discuss working conditions openly with management without fear of harassment, pressure, punishment, or interference.

Workers have the right to join or not join associations of their choice.

Health and Safety
The supplier must protect the health, safety, and well-being of its employees, subcontractors, visitors, and others subject to the effects of its operations.

Other
In addition, Innoflame requires suppliers to take certain measures related to, among other things, data protection and storage, international trade regulations, and anti-corruption.

We Monitor Responsible Conduct

Innoflame’s whistleblowing channel enables concerns and misconduct to be reported safely and anonymously. The channel complies with applicable whistleblower protection legislation and is available to both our own employees and the employees of our partners.

Reports may concern actions or omissions that may violate laws, ethical guidelines or other obligations, whether relating to our own operations or those of our business partners. The channel safeguards the confidentiality of the reporting person and ensures that all reports are handled appropriately.

UN Global Compact – Our Global Commitment

Innoflame is committed to the UN Global Compact, the world’s largest corporate sustainability initiative, with over 25,000 companies and organizations from more than 160 countries. By participating, we adhere to ten principles covering human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption, while promoting the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

This commitment provides us with a clear framework and tools to develop our sustainability work and the opportunity to connect with other responsible companies. We report our progress annually through the UN Global Compact’s Communication on Progress (CoP).

We Build a Dignified and Ethical Working Life

Innoflame’s social responsibility is guided by the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We have identified a particularly relevant goal for us:

SDG 8 – Decent Work and Economic Growth

It is important to us that Innoflame is an attractive and responsible workplace for all our employees. We continuously develop our staff’s skills and invest in promoting workplace well-being.

Our employees are guided by Innoflame’s Code of Conduct, which defines principles related to human rights, equality, anti-corruption, environmental responsibility, data protection and fair competition.

We have also established a separate Supplier Code of Conduct for our suppliers, to which they are required to commit and whose compliance we monitor.

This helps ensure that both our own organisation and our entire supply chain operate responsibly, ethically and transparently.
