In DNV, Corporate Responsibility (CR), focuses on the need to align corporate goals with those of society. With the purpose of safeguarding life, property and the environment, DNV is committed to its clients’ work towards sustainable products and systems. In addition to these external services, DNV’s own CR performance is a corporate priority area.
DNV ensures that CR is an integral part of its management system and business culture. Stakeholders and society at large expect corporate transparency, and that business decision-making is linked to ethical values. CR in DNV is about enhancing the positive impacts our core business activities have on society.
DNV works to ensure a healthy and motivating working environment by building a company culture where we care for each individual employee's physical, mental and social well-being. To achieve this, we have implemented a SHE management system.
Our commitment to sustainable development is visible through the initiatives we actively support and the organisations we collaborate with.
In addition to DNV's services and operations, we address our environmental footprint through encouraging and supporting our employees in reducing their personal environmental impact.
