Mapping of suppliers

Every year, we collect information from our suppliers through Factlines software. The self-reporting is based on the UN Global Compact and the OECD Guidelines for Responsible Business Conduct and is in line with the due diligence process required by the Transparency Act.

The self-reporting includes the following topics:

  • Corporate social responsibility, strategy and policies
  • Supply chain: monitoring, insight and control
  • Risk and due diligence assessments
  • Land risk
  • Management systems in the business
  • Working conditions and rights
  • Ethnic groups and the environment
  • Conflict minerals
  • Anti-corruption
The data collection provides a basis for assessing whether good practices have been established to comply with the Transparency Act, Section 5 of the Public Procurement Act and the company's own contractual provisions.
The survey covers direct suppliers and the manufacturer/production site, and collects information about their routines and procedures for monitoring the entire supply chain.
Information related to risks in production countries is based on several sources, including ITUC (The International Trade Union Confederation) on labor rights and Transparency International (corruption index).
Furthermore, conditions relating to labor rights, anti-corruption and whether the suppliers themselves have carried out self-reporting, improvement projects and/or inspections at the production site are mapped. We also assess whether suppliers have established routines for quality, health and safety, the environment and corporate social responsibility.
Our suppliers have been made aware of our Code of Conduct and must deliver goods and services that are produced in accordance with it. They are also required to communicate and follow up on the guidelines with their subcontractors.
If self-reporting or other indicators indicate deviations, these are followed up with the supplier in question. The purpose is to be able to prevent and reduce negative consequences in collaboration with the supplier and other actors in the supply chain.
