Hufvudstaden purchases goods and services in areas such as construction projects, property operations and services. Our supply chain involves risks related to areas including working conditions, labour exploitation, human rights and corruption. Through the requirements we place on suppliers and business partners, we work to prevent and manage these risks. These requirements are set out in our Supplier Code of Conduct and are also expected to be passed on to subcontractors.

How we monitor our suppliers
We continuously monitor our suppliers to identify and manage risks. Each year, we conduct a sustainability assessment of our key suppliers, covering areas such as the environment, health and safety, and social issues. We also carry out on-site audits and financial assessments. This provides a basis for ongoing dialogue and follow-up and helps us focus our efforts on areas where risks are greatest.
