Responsible conduct

For us in Topdanmark going to work is not only about what you do and how you perform, but also about how you act towards others and in the world surrounding us. Our ethical guidelines must support responsible conduct and sustainability both in and outside the workplace.

Our code of conduct consists of several principles that reflects the behaviour we wish to promote in Topdanmark.

The principles are about how we treat each other, serve our customers and how we interact with other stakeholders such as investors, suppliers, business partners, tax authorities, and supervisory authorities. The principles also reflect the way in which we want to exercise corporate governance and generally work with social and environmental sustainability.




Based on the UN Global Compact

Our code of conduct is based on our current policies as well as our employee aspiration that describes how Topdanmark should be as a workplace. Moreover, we have built on the principles of the UN Global Compact, which we have been affiliated with since 2010.

All new employees are obliged to complete and pass an e-learning course on the code of conduct in their onboarding process. Other employees are obliged to complete and pass the e-learning course every two years.
