Social responsibility is an important part of our strategy. We are committed to operating responsibly to benefit not only our customers and stakeholders but also our workplace communities and local communities. We believe that a socially responsible company is an attractive employer and partner to companies.
In our workplace community, social responsibility means employee wellbeing and occupational safety and health, developing employee competence and diversity, equity and inclusion. Our goal is to also be a self-directed workplace community of highly competent professionals, with a strong capacity for renewal. We also promote leadership in our workplace community.
With regard to our local communities, customers and stakeholders, social responsibility means that we promote growth, wellbeing and financial literacy. We also want to promote responsibility in our partnerships.
Developing employee wellbeing and competence
Satisfied employees with a high level of wellbeing, well looked after by their employer, are the foundation and key resource underlying all of our operations.
Diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI)
We offer equal opportunities for all in everyday life and our approach is based on equality. We promote equality and diversity through our overall personnel policy with concrete and practical measures.
Increasing financial literacy and knowledge
Increasing financial literacy and knowledge in society is an important aspect of responsibility. The promotion of saving and financial wellbeing has been at the core of Savings Banks’ strategy for 200 years.
