Kalmar conducts business in a complex global environment and our industry is exposed to ethics and compliance risks related to, for example, doing business in remote locations, bidding for large projects and using sales intermediaries in countries where there are no Kalmar sales offices. Kalmar has strong practices for detecting, preventing and responding to potential misconduct, clear guidelines for ethical behaviour and robust channels for whistleblowing. With these efforts and our commitment to integrity, we can set the example for stakeholders throughout our value chain.
Kalmar works with thousands of suppliers globally, which are chosen with care and on the basis of objective factors such as quality, reliability, delivery, sustainability and price. Compliance with laws and regulations as well as respect for international human rights are required from each supplier.
