Caseb takes its social and environmental responsibilities seriously and integrates sustainability considerations into its investment and ownership decisions. The company aligns its practices with relevant international standards and evaluates environmental, social, and governance risks as part of its long-term value creation.
We aim to continuously improve the working conditions and well-being of our employees and those in our value chain and thereby strengthen human rights in countries where we operate. We shall, among other things, actively ensure:
Caseb wishes to incorporate ESG goals into our businesses’ operations. In this regard, we focus on the following:
Caseb, as a co-owner in several small and medium-sized companies, has been committed to ensuring that these companies and their supply chains follow the strict ethical guidelines and minimize the impact on the external environment. As active owners, we maintain ongoing contact with management in the companies in which we are engaged. In this way, and through more formal reporting routines, we strive to ensure that our business partners comply with local and international laws and regulations that preserve the environment and secure human rights and decent working conditions for employees.
Caseb itself has no operations that pose major challenges regarding human rights, decent working conditions, or the environment. We address these through active ownership, dialogue, and the promotion of clear sustainability expectations. Through ongoing dialogue with the management of these companies and at board level, we ensure that they strive, as far as possible, to achieve the most important of the UN's sustainability goals.
Caseb complies with the Norwegian Transparency Act and works actively to encourage suppliers, partners, and contractors to adhere to recognised standards for human rights, working conditions, and responsible business conduct. This commitment applies across our extended value chain and is an integrated part of how we assess and manage risk in our operations and investments.
Caseb seeks to generate positive societal impact alongside long-term financial returns through disciplined investment and active ownership. This approach is reflected in how we invest and follow our companies over time, with the aim that our investments contribute to positive societal development, regardless of industry or product. We pursue this through active dialogue and long-term ownership.
