Introduction to Corporate Citizenship
Danfoss can be compared to a global citizen – a visible entity and one which people monitor. Note is taken, both of successes and of possible failures.
Danfoss has a long tradition of accountability, both with regard to employees and with local communities Danfoss' name should at all times be connected with respect for human rights, good working conditions, social commitment and continuous efforts to improve performance while keeping the environment in mind.
Going forward, Danfoss wants the entire Corporate Citizenship Report to be verified by an external partner. So far, only the environmental section has undergone verification of a third party. The environmental section of this year’s Corporate Citizenship Report was verified by Det Norske Veritas (DNV), who will complete a full verification of the entire Corporate Citizenship Report, with effect from 2010.
Global Reporting Initiative (GRI)
The five main themes of GRI (human rights, society impact, labour practices, environment and product responsibility) form the basis of the contents of the Corporate Citizenship report and an extensive table of the GRI indicators which Danfoss has chosen to report.
Danfoss applies G3 guidelines from the Global Reporting Initiative to structure the reporting efforts relating to social and environmental issues.Read more about GRI under "Corporate Citizenship Reports" in the lefthand menu or download Danfoss' GRI Indicator Table below.
