Corporate Responsibility
Creating value through engaging our stakeholders
Understanding the priorities and concerns of stakeholders is vital to ensuring we continuously improve and raise the bar on our sustainability efforts.
We accept having a responsibility for an ethical and conscientious relationship with the following stakeholders:
- Employees
- Customers
- Suppliers
- Bus iness partners
- The environment
- Society in general
Expectations to the shipping industry include more transparency as well as more innovative and ambitious actions to meet the climate challenges. Without preparing to meet the expectations of today and tomorrow, we will not succeed in the long term.
In our strategy we target the following stakeholders specifically: the environment, employees, suppliers and local communities.
Ethics and transparency
As part of an international industry, we face many dilemmas related to various aspects of our business. Openness and good reporting routines are fundamental. Through active dilemma training we uphold focus on our ethical guidelines and how we demonstrate them in our daily work.
Suppliers
Making sure vessels are equipped with all the necessary supplies and services at all times is a complex task, involving suppliers across the world. With more than 370 suppliers, our main challenge is to influence effectively.
In order to build a sustainable value chain, we encourage our suppliers to focus on high ethical and environmental standards in their respective value chains, with our supplier code of conduct (SCC) as an essential tool. In addition to signing this code, a check list should be filled in and returned to Grieg Shipping Group.
Grieg Shipping Group does not sign any frame agreement with any supplier, unless the Supplier Code of Conduct has been agreed upon and signed.
