Transmode AB's Sustainability Report 2014 has been published
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Stockholm, Sweden - 21 May 2015
Transmode's Sustainability Report 2014 has been published today on the company's
website. The Report provides an overview of our sustainability program and
activities in 2014. We communicate our work on those aspects of sustainability
that are relevant and material to our business and stakeholders.
Highlights of the Year
* In 2014, Transmode conducted its first systematic sustainability-oriented
dialogue with stakeholders to guide our sustainability work going forward.
The outcome from our stakeholder dialogue provided valuable input for our
Materiality Analysis, which identified three focus areas - business ethics,
environmental footprint and working conditions.
* Our work to ensure a high standard of business ethics continued in 2014, and
we implemented an internal business risk evaluation process to monitor
business risks.
* All employees signed the Code of Conduct, and took web-based training, in
the year. Implementation of our Partner Code of Conduct Policy commenced and
some 75% of our partners had signed the Code by year-end. We also sustained
our efforts to have all critical suppliers sign up to our Supplier Code of
Conduct.
* Transmode's most important contribution to a sustainable society is its
energy-efficient products. Transmode launched a new generation of compact
and energy-efficient 100G products in 2014.
* In 2014, our total CO(2) emissions decreased by 27% on 2013.
"The overall target for Transmode is to grow profitably and contribute to a
sustainable society, as we strive to increase network capacity in a cost-
effective and sustainable manner. In 2014, many of our customers sharpened their
focus on monitoring how we handle corporate social responsibility. We welcome
this interest, and are now even more convinced of the long-term importance of an
effective sustainability strategy," says Karl Thedéen, Transmode's CEO.
The Sustainability Report is based on the Global Reporting Initiative guidelines
GRI G3.1 Level C and describes actions taken and achievements concerning
employees, environmental responsibility, customers, suppliers and products.
