One of Perstorp’s three core values is responsibility, which shall pervade all the activities and decisions that the company and its personnel implement in both the short and long-term perspective. It is Perstorp’s managers who have the responsibility for communicating and checking observance of the Code of Conduct. Every employee must know the principles and essence of the Code of Conduct and act in accordance with it.
Violations of the Code of Conduct
Perstorp’s managers shall also encourage employees to correct, or report, matters that contravene the principles of the code. The fundamental approach is that local managers shall handle any problems or suspected violations that arise. Perstorp’s managers shall ensure that the Code of Conduct is observed and they shall create such an open atmosphere and working environment that all types of problem can be discussed openly and without censure. If for some reason it is not possible to report a violation locally, the alternative is to use the whistle-blowing principle.
