The Code of Conduct is equivalent of rules and foundations that sets the
standard of integrity we follow.
The Code of Conduct applies to everyone working for and with us: employees,
board members, consultants, agents, and parties acting on our behalf. We also
expect our business partners to uphold the same high ethical standards. The
Code of Conduct outlines how we are expected to act and covers our duties and
rights.
The code of Conduct is complemented by detailed policies, manuals, guidelines, and routines. Together, these documents form our governing framework that guides all employees in their daily work. It is also crucial to exercise good judgement and ask for advice if needed.
Heimstaden Bostad is a reliable partner for colleagues, customers, owners,
suppliers, and all other stakeholders. With our values integrated throughout
the company, we conduct our business in a lawful and ethical way - externally
and internally.
We always act fairly, meet people with respect, and have zero tolerance
against all forms of criminality, corruption, fraud, bribery, money
laundering, privacy violation, anti-competitive actions, insider
trading, human right violation, bad working environment, harassment, and retaliation.
This applies to all stakeholders – you need to support this 100% for
Heimstaden Bostad to be the right employer, landlord, partner, or investment
for you.
Heimstaden Bostad has a responsibility to protect anyone who in good faith
speaks up about suspected violations of the Code of Conduct, local laws,
regulations, and other issues. We do not tolerate any form of retaliation
(including separation, demotion, suspension, or loss of benefits) against
anyone who makes a good faith report of potential misconduct or helps with an
investigation.
We want you to be free to ask questions and raise issues without fear of
retaliation, secure in the knowledge that you did the right thing in stepping
forward. When you speak up about unethical and illegal behaviour, you are
saying that an honest and ethical workplace matters to you.
