Our Code of Conduct states standards for ethical business behaviour to prevent corrupt or fraudulent practices. It establishes the general rules to be observed in order to meet our ethical standards for business behaviour.
The Code of Conduct is based on international guidelines prepared by the International Federation of Consulting Engineers (FIDIC) and UN Global Compact. It applies to all business units in Ramboll and also to sub-contractors and partners in connection with projects undertaken in cooperation with us. The Code of Conduct forms the backbone in our Business Integrity Management System (BIMS). Our BIMS is based on FIDIC's BIMS guidelines.
Whistleblower
In order to provide all employees with the opportunity to report on possible illegal acts and unethical occurrences related to the company’s business practices, a common Whistleblower function has been established. At present the Whistleblower function is a direct link to our Group CEO.
Code of Practice
We have translated our Code of Conduct into practical terms in our Code of Practice. While it cannot describe every situation our employees might encounter, it does provide a framework for what we consider responsible behaviour.
