The responsibility and commitment of our employees at comprise the foundation of our sustainability efforts. We strive for employees who enjoy their jobs and perform well so that both they and AddLife can grow and create business value. With dedicated and satisfied employees we get higher customer satisfaction, productivity and profitability.
AddLife is an independent player in Life Science and have an entrepreneurial business model with independent subsidiaries.
Our business shall be conducted in line with the principle of long-term, soundly based development. As well as being subject to business economic requirements, goals and guidelines,our business activities shall be conducted in accordance with strict criteria in terms of integrity and ethics. We therefore attach great value to acting in a professional, honest and ethically correct manner. We support the UN Global Compact, ILO core conventions and OECD guidelines for multinational companies and our Code of Conduct is based on these policies.
As a minimum, we observe all applicable laws and regulations and where necessary will also introduce standards in accordance with the Code of Conduct, where laws and regulations do not align with the Code’s objectives. We expect that in their operations suppliers maintain knowledge of and as a minimum requirement observe national legislation in the countries where they conduct their business.
In 2017 AddLife conducted a stakeholder dialogue with subsequent analysis regarding the sustainability aspects that are most important for us and where our impact is greatest. The
stakeholder dialogue and materiality analysis provided answers regarding the sustainability issues that the Company’s stakeholders consider to be most important and thus what we should prioritise in our sustainability efforts.
We focus on being a responsible employer and a sustainable supplier.
It is of great importance that AddLife conducts its business based on high business standards and goals, as well as on high ethical and moral standards. By continually improving sustainability in our business, we can become a more professional partner in a more demanding business world. For us, business value and sustainability are not in conflict; rather, they support one another. We embrace our responsibility to contribute to sustainable development both within the company and in society at large.
I really believe that responsibility characterises everyday life here. My job includes sustainability issues, where it is extremely important to meet the demands of our customers. We must constantly ensure that our products comply with all quality and environmental requirements and that our suppliers live up to our Code of Conduct. Taking full responsibility for sustainability ultimately affects the business value of the entire company.
