We formed the Corporate Responsibility unit in 2012, an initiative aimed at
further strengthening and impacting the level of responsibility taken by the
company in a complex world. Our Corporate Responsibility strategy initially
includes a framework of commitments for achieving business success in
a responsible way. We will deliver sustainable value to our customers and
business partners, employees, shareholders and society at large. Our com-
mitment is founded on four cornerstones: Ethics, Society, Environment and
Our People. Ethical issues are governed with great respect and we strive
to set an example within the industry. We want to take an active role in the
communities we serve through nancial and social investments. Young
people and technology are our primary focus, and we collaborate with about
50 schools and universities. A permanent task force, capable of making
proactive humanitarian efforts on short notice in the event of disasters, was
established during the autumn of 2012. In the environmental area, we are
continuously working to reduce our environmental impact in everything we
do related to products, services and production. Our employees are our
most important asset and, as a responsible company, we ensure that we can
retain and attract new employees.

It is essential that our sustainability work is clearly integrated with our oper-
ating activities. We have initiated an internal and external dialogue to further
integrate priority issues with our operations and create a uniform, compre-
hensive view of our commitment.
The results of these dialogues will form the basis for a clear, overarching
target and key ratios for each commitment area. These will be monitored on
a regular basis to ensure that our actions are in accord with the expectations
placed on us in a complex world.
