The Transparency Act of 1 July 2022 shall promote enterprises’ respect for fundamental human rights and decent working conditions in connection with the production of goods and the provision of services. The Act must also ensure the general public access to information regarding how enterprises address adverse impacts on fundamental human rights and decent working conditions.
Hevold Group AS and its subsidiaries comply with the Transparency Act and have anchored work with – and compliance with – the Transparency Act in the board and management of the individual company, and at group level.
We will carry out due diligence assessments of supply chains, business partners and our own Norwegian businesses in accordance with OECD guidelines for multinational companies. The work with the Transparency Act in the individual companies of the group will be carried out in collaboration with the Hevold Group AS as owner.
As part of the work, Hevold Group has appointed a “transparency act officer” who will have the overall operational responsibility for compliance with the Norwegian enterprises’ obligation to provide information.
