Policies

By ensuring compliance with laws and regulations and transparent communication about corporate governance and sustainability, we aim to build trust with our stakeholders, which is of utmost importance to us at Nyfosa.

Nyfosa’s corporate governance is based on the Swedish Code of Corporate Governance, Swedish legislation, the Nasdaq Stockholm Regulations for issuers and other rules and guidelines to which the company is subject. Through good corporate governance and transparency, we create a stable relationship with our shareholders and other stakeholders.

Every year, Nyfosa’s Board adopts the company’s sustainability policy and other related policies. The sustainability policy describes the framework for Nyfosa’s responsibilities in the relationships created in operations. Good business ethics and trusting relations are important starting points both internally and in contacts with external parties. Nyfosa’s employees play a key role in alerting us if they suspect someone in operations is violating the company’s ethical guidelines.

Anonymous whistle-blower function

Our employees have an important role to sound the alarm if they are suspicious of something going on in our business that violates our ethical guidelines according to our Sustainability Policy.

Examples of maladministration may be:

Economic irregularities and corruption
Serious harassment and discrimination
Safety risks in the workplace
Environmental offences

Employees are first encouraged to speak with their manager. If they want to stay anonymous, we offer a secure channel for reporting and dialogue through our whistle-blower function.

Environmental responsibility

Nyfosa strives to continuously develop our work regarding the environment. Therefore, we have an Environmental Policy that is adopted annually by the board. It is the Group Management that is responsible for compliance with this policy, which is maintained through daily contact with the management organization and through a central control function that monitors that all major investments comply with the policy.

Social responsibility

Social responsibility is about how the business affects people of and around Nyfosa. It is about helping to develop a society that puts people at the center and helping to create the conditions for good health, a good life and to reduce unfair differences. For Nyfosa, social responsibility is about involvement in the places where the company is located and in the tenants, visitors and residents that are located in these places. Social sustainability means protecting employees of Nyfosa, making demands on suppliers and partners, and safeguarding good working and delivery conditions.
